is it worth it?

89% of $800.00 a day....I would do it for as long as it lasts! When the work is done...go get your own truck back out on the road again.

 

Doesn't sound worth it, to me anyway. There's a lot of stuff you haven't covered yet, OP. Fuel cost on your pickup is not the only expense. Add them all in, see what changes. You have work and a place to sleep, what about food and beverage resources, clothing, hygiene, insurance, all of it. Who's paying the tax man, and how much is that going to be? Do it yourself, or pay a service? How much would that be? $710/week sounds good, but for me there's too much subtracting in the formula. My $.02.

 

710/week sounds good,-----

That sounds horrible.

IT's offered at $800 a DAY

 

Add ALL the expenses from this endeavor vs the timeframe you'd expect it to last: if the net on this is greater than what you'd net in the same timeframe with your own equipment, and you wouldn't mind staying out all week then by all means do it to it.

 

Skip hotel room and sleep in the truck...... Get loads to/from so no commute ......

And ..... Local % for a driver is like 30%.

 

You're not going to lose any customers being gone for a few weeks. It also sounds like you're running it through bill. Is 3k in net revenue without wear and tear on your truck and trailer worth it? Only you know the answer to that. I'd probably do it.

 

Looks like #### good money in my book !! Of course all depends on ALL the details but, $3,500+/week in somebody else's truck looks like a no brainer

 

And that's when you give them the old in out in out
