    I doubt you'll find one that pays for all miles driven? Lot of drivers use their truck for a taxi, so it wouldn't be too long before the companies would go in the red by paying all miles. Most pay pc miler short miles, household mover miles or some kind of factoring miles. I have seen a couple who said they pay pcmiler practical but when you get your check, you find that's not exactly the case. There may be a very few who do, but you will probably get old hunting them.

    GSF pays by the hub, or used to , same pay loaded or not , ( Certain rates for number of miles 0 -to 200 was 1 rate , then 201 to 350 was another rate , then 351 + was still another ) then they pay by the stop , and by the piece....they used to pay by the hour (anything over 8 a day was OT) , and then went to what they called component pay.....liked it much better than hourly.

    I get paid hub miles. It sucked 2 weeks ago when my instrument panel was messing up and losing power. I just did a guesstimate and the company was cool with that.
