    Don't listen to the "but it's a write off" line to justify buy something you don't need or overpaying for something. You are giving away a dollar to keep from sending the government 40 cents.

    It’s Groundhog Day for me.

    ACT, Clayton, Richmond, Olathe.
    Repeat.
    Repeat.

    I don’t mind it, but I’m going to need a higher quality seat, if I have to cross Indiana this many times. Or a Volvo.

    At Atbs when I used them the first year's service you paid them went on the next year's service it's just the way they did it..I'm not saying it can't be used on the same year. Didn't really matter to me all cared about was making sure I paid my taxes quarterly usually I overpaid and got a big tax refund.

    There's a lot more people in California just now figuring out how much cheaper it is to live in a vehicle or a camper, rather than an apartment. A lot of areas coming up with new laws to stop this.
     
    Friend and MidWest_MacDaddy Thank this.

    For a single truck, just starting out, there is no real reason to complicate things. The entire return can be done on a 1040 with a Schedule A, or C, depending on how you are set up. ALL of the book keeping can be done on a single spreadsheet, and excel can give you all of your expenses by category if needed, track revenue, and generate a P&L from that sheet. If you set it up correctly, it can even give you revenue, cost, and profit per mile. It can give you cost per mile PER EXPENSE ITEM too. That makes it real easy to see what the ROI is for a maint item or modification.

    I'm glad i don't live in Texas. You wouldn't believe how muggy it is outside. Weather app says it feels like almost 90. At 3 am.

    Delivering in Savannah this morning then picking up in Lumberton. It’s going to Home Depot in Topeka. On the additional info for Topeka it says they have a new location and gives directions. I assume they’ve added a new drop lot or perhaps replaced the 3 or so they had near the museum.
    Asked my DM and he confidently told me something rather silly.
    Anyway from the directions it looks like this is the spot:

    Has anyone been to HD Topeka since May 11th and gone to the new drop lot?
