Daaaaaaang! Shots fired 😱😤! I should’ve stayed home longer to milk it😜. I absolutely agree! Prime is in business to make money. Too many people go in the hole.and just dump their trucks. Leave Prime holding the bag. 1 person that does that is 1 too many and Prime doesn’t/ shouldn’t have to front anyone’s truck payment. But they do. I take advantage of this only because I rather keep and control as much of the money I do have in my possession. Not because I need to. It’s getting paid one way or another😉. I may consider paying for the truck in advance next time. Because I might take a longer home time😜. Also to test the revenue average theory 😉. Great video man!
I had to comment because you don't want your truck in the hole. The reality is the fleet managers need to get your truck profitable. So put money off to the side and use that for your home time. Then your fleet manager will book you higher paying loads to show the truck profitable. TRUST ME IT WORKS!
You have to realize this is basically power only. If you look at the load board for the spot market its only like $2.57 right now for reefer. So if you take 30% off that it comes to $1.80. It's right on par with current market conditions.
Addressing an entire fleet for the mistakes of a few is weak management. The issues I see happening a lot at prime is letting things go way too long, then overreacting about it. Nip it in the bud

Do they pay you the same to take it back?
They did
@ awesome!
That must have been some high priced burger if they wanted it back so badly.
Right
