    Yeah, for $500 for the pair, that's a good deal.
    There is a little 16×16 machine tarp with d rings running in both directions that I want too. That little sucker is only $130..

    I don't know if I'm doing good on tarp pay or not, but I've got a personal minimum of $150 for one & $250 if I got to drag em both out. I rarely take tarped freight because I dread pulling out them 8 foots. Smaller tarps would pay for themselves in 2-3 loads tops. That's for sure..

    Same here. 200 dollars is fair in my book atleast for general freight. Most i ever got was 500, on that washington to illinois load i took back in january, with all those weird angles and sharp edges. Took like 6 something hours to pad and tarp...

    For years all I had was 2 8 foot lumber tarps, a 12X12 “smoke” tarp and an 18X34 flat tarp. No “D” rings, all web loops all the way around.

    Met a guy one time from Quebec, he travels around the U.S. buying Harleys, many ex PD bikes, takes 'em back to his shop and flips 'em. Any money in that I asked? Yep, made over a million the year before...

    It worked for portugal. The opposite of what you think would happen. Lower od's, fewer new HIV cases and more people entering into treatment. Prohibition never works and the govt knows that too. They don't want that tho, they want everyone distracted and hooked so they can keep chipping away at our liberties
