Redbeard, I read in one of the early posts that you keep your guitar in the truck for downtime. Right now you're my hero! I hope to be there someday. Owning a truck a plucking the six string!!!

I've had to leave the axe at home lately. The hot/cool cycles during the summer were wreaking havoc on the intonation, and I needed the space for dog food, etc. Plus, I haven't had that much downtime lately. I'll post my latest numbers soon.

You still around RB? Haven't seen much from ya' around the forum anywhere.

Yeah, I'm around. Just haven't been on the forum. I've been on Facebook a lot lately.

Quick update: revenue is off a bit. Kind of a "big month, tiny month, big month, tiny month, rinse, repeat" cycle.

I turned in the credit app to refinance my truck the other day, should be signing the contract next time I go home. Given the number of loads I've been turning down lately because the miles per day sucked, I dunno how company drivers (who are forced dispatch now) are making a living. I'm looking around for other opportunities right now. Been talking to as many Landstar BCOs on the van side as I can, and looking at much smaller companies also.
