Gross / net
Bleed
Detention priced as opportunity cost of a moving hour (revenue ÷ active driving hours). Idle fuel at 0.8 gal/hr.
Fuel eats 34¢ of every revenue dollar.
Maintenance is 1.9%. Detention — hours the fleet sits still at warehouse docks — silently costs another $36M a year in forgone miles.

Earning
Each bar is a 10¢ bracket of net $/mile (revenue − fuel). The left tail below $0.80 is the loss zone — trips that, before driver pay and overhead, already don't pay for themselves.
55.4% of deliveries arrived late.
47 300 loads landed outside their scheduled window out of 85 410 completed. Splitting the miss into causes shows where coaching, scheduling, or facility negotiation would actually move the number.

Detention = time the truck sits still at a shipper or receiver past its scheduled window.

Top 10 worst and top 5 best origin → destination pairs by on-time rate, across pairs with at least 50 loads. Bar position = on-time rate within the observed range; Δ vs fleet average.
Customer scheduling
Lowest on-time customers
Customers ranked by on-time rate among the 20 largest volume accounts. Low rates often trace back to the receiver's dock, not the carrier.
