    Yes, I am getting the max. Many states pay more than that. Especially MA.

    I see MA max is $742. So why are you only getting $500? I’m curious since I don’t see any States max being $500. Texas, Utah, and Oklahoma are close to it. Are you sure you’re not getting $962?
     
    Constant Learner Thanks this.

    It is not exactly $500, but it is close enough to be round it up to $500. In MA the max is $1,220 per week...

    How about you go to work? I am glad I am not there in MA and I don't pay for your laziness.

    He ( @Constant Learner ) is referring to my trip I did a month ago or two. I cleared over 3000 after fuel and tolls on 3700 miles or so. The rate per mile they calculated for me turned out to be $1.14.
    I was able to outrun the cheap rates that time. I am not saying I could sustain it long term but I did chose to do it and I am glad I did. I was better off with that 1.14 per mile vs staying home that week and collecting unemployment. For instance in a week to follow: I paid for my trailer, insurance premium + I was able to keep another $1800 for future repairs.

    I do work. Hard. With the various government programs available for people like me. This is the name of the
    game right now. I'm certainly not that stupid to haul a cheap freight for $1.14 like you.

    So you tried to be sarcastic (referencing the other thread) by saying that I am a dumb idiot who cannot read what is written there.... You are saying that it is beyond my comprehension that I should not bother.

    I kind of suspected it, at first, but thought, for a moment, that you were referring to your own trouble understanding what was stated in the closing documents just like you seemed troubled understanding the purpose of taking EIDL loans in your previous statements.

    If so, that's ok I will not hold grudge against you. You are a constant learner.

    1.14 rate per all mile was not 1.14 freight. It included 500-600 mile deadhead from Denver to Lincoln,NE. I don't want to split hair in two anyways. The 1.14 rate per mile is long gone. Now it is 60 dol a mile how do you top that with your government program?
    See the point? I can say whatever I want typing here.
    Anyways, Whatever you can get with the dry van on the spot market, I can get that too.
    I will not continue arguing with you in this thread. I am done with you here. Take your sarcastic remarks somewhere else. For example: You can start another thread TallJoe is an idiot hauling for 1.14 or PM me. I will talk to you, if I have time. Otherewise....see u later alligator.

    Yes because I learned enough already that's why I am successful an owner operator - I live happy life.
    I repeat:
