Meanwhile back at the overvalued Ranch. I ran a 7 day week, Grossed $8300, spent .$3200 on fuel. $2.59 all miles. Not too bad. Took a loser weekend load to get home for a Drs appointment. That Knocked Me down to $2.30 pm all miles. Final was $9900 for 10 days running, total of 4283 miles. Clearing $5700 after fuel. Drs. appointment wasn’t great. I gained 15 lbs. blood pressures up 20 points. Slept for about 35 hrs. Lol. All in all it’s a tough hustle. Every penny earned. That’s the best I could do. Still beats counting on someone else for a paycheck. Taking 5 days off, till Friday. Probably should have taken a 1500 round mile trip offered today for $3500. Net would be $2000 after fuel. But I never do what I’m supposed to do. I do what I want, play it by ear, everything always works out, one way or another.
Rates are crashing and fuel to the moon!

Nice, can’t lose in your area either. I miss the winding roads and lakes. Wife hated being stuck “way out there” Lol. After 20 yrs. I gave in. Now it’s block after block of neighbors, and every store within 3 miles. I hate it, except when I need parts, or a tool. Lol.

But, that is what I do.Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
My wife formed a ritual of getting to Panera Bread almost each morning. LOL But she doesn't overspend on clothes, etc. She says I'm the spender. Things need to be done around the house, truck, cars, etc.
She likes to plan short road trips around states each year. Now, the gas still makes more worth it than flying the whole family. (We didn't buy tickets one year in advance due to COVID.)Last edited: Jun 15, 2022
