This is especially important in contracting, trucking and other lines of business in which haulage is a principle item. In such businesses, in fact, success or failure often depends solely upon a true knowledge . of .« transportation costs. Unless the operator chooses to inâ€" stal one of the various cost system forms which are sold at a nominal sum, it is simple for him to devise one that fits his own business. But it would be advisable for the operator to study these systems b:.!fire attemptâ€" ing to perfect one of hisfown, as they embody the experience of thousands‘ of truck users. "It furnishes," he said, "comparaâ€" tive figures to show just which truck is being operated efficiently. When records show high operating costs, it sounds the alarm to investigate the cause, whether it be the fault of the driver, the operating system or the records sho sounds the cause, whe driver,. the truck itself . Another user, a contractor operatâ€" ing ten trucks, recently declared that even the owner of two trucks should maintain records. r Said a user of six trucks recently *A few months after we instituted .: eost and performance record system we were able to spot leaks which acâ€" counted for 25 per cent. of our exâ€" pense of operation." Some inexperienced truck operators are prone to dismiss the task of mainâ€" taining records with the argument that it is a waste of time and money. To the contrary, experience proves that.time and money thus invested yield handsome returns. Install a Costs System and You will $ Save Money on Your Trucks The value of maintaining a cost and performance record of, motor truck operation is obvious. Except those who do keep such records, however, few appreciate just how invaluable they are.
