Operating Cost

Just curious to what some of your customers cost per hour of operation are? I understand it varies depending on vintage of fleet, environment, and operators. I have customers that run for under $2 per hour to a customer that runs $14 per hour! Both with newer model units, although two completely different environments. Let me know your experiences.

Total maintenance costs divided by run time.

What factors do you take into account for cost per hour costs- total yearly expenditures divided by run time? Fuel costs? operator costs?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
