intrade is getting shafted if he pays $300 for a ‘useless’ cof!

Now add the other 2 days a week, the other 3 hours and a second driver. Fonterra trucks do over 100000km a month here in Canterbury during the peak

bill-robinson, Dec 20, 10:09am
work it out, that is an average speed of 133kph 24/7.

martin11, Dec 20, 11:26am
Read the post #53 again it infers to Fontera Trucks , not just one truck !

alowishes, Dec 20, 11:32am
IF it was one truck and not the fleet that was being mentioned.

bill-robinson, Dec 20, 12:32pm
my mistake.

intrade, Dec 20, 12:53pm
thats what a truck pays who transports concreet water tanks. not to mention the trip in wasted ruc to get to the remote location of thes cof places. 3 bux a km is not un'common per km to pay in ruc for a truck. we should have gold plated roads. check it your self doit online take a plate of a big rig and see what ruc costs.

intrade, Dec 20, 1:06pm
in the peak all cars on the planet do 100 billion km a month lol.
but only in the peak or in my delutions .

Isnt it the trucks that stuff the road condition ?

mrcat1, Dec 20, 4:25pm
I see more plucking numbers out of the sky, highest RUC rate is like 41 cents per km for a truck.

mrcat1, Dec 20, 4:25pm
Isnt it the trucks that pay the highest amount in RUC for that privilage?

intrade, Dec 20, 4:38pm
do you actuarly read what i wrote. i said to check your self

Each unit for distance licences = 1000 K or 621 M. The minimum units that can be bought is 1. If you want to change the units, please delete the existing unit, and enter the units required.

RUC weight:
50

Purchase amount:
$291.80 (Incl GST)

thats for 1000km . at that cost roads should be made of gold.
You dont need to de surprised when truck transports have to charge horrendous prices to move goods as thats just the road user the government milks of trucks. diesel on top tyre maintainace driver wages . absolute emense costs all up.

mrcat1, Dec 20, 4:56pm
Thats 29.18 cents per km, and actually isnt for a 50 tonne unit, as you cant put 50 tonne on one truck.

intrade, Dec 20, 5:00pm
yes and it was suposed to be .3$ so i did not plug numbers out of the sky . its why i said to check your self clearly
you also pay that empty as far as i know. In europe they have computers and a light on front screen to display they are loaded unloaded trailer on it etc.
and i did read they wanted to introduce that here also years ago already but the morons wanted it for all diesel. As in europe diesel has the tax on fuel and the trucks just pay the add'on waight charges

Out of the sky you say, bit further south I think.

mrcat1, Dec 22, 8:20pm

ronaldo8, Dec 22, 8:20pm
Right right, it was all on purpose, the puppet master strikes again.

Pfffft

azzab54, Dec 24, 4:01pm
