    Not just truck parts, human body parts! Backs, butts, eyes, on and on.

    I shoot for less than 2k per week and go home every weekend. Life isn't all about rate per mile.

    Ummmm. You're paying $2500 month for a truck, and put $10K in repairs in it this year?

    Wreck?

    I mean we're all tracking to $100Kish to the good after everything, and we've all had big hits.

    You're expenses are way high for your revenue.

    if you can’t pay your bills in 5 days you are probably living beyond your means, (and it’s more like 4.5 for me)
    Rare exemption if you need to catch up on something or a good customer really needs it, but even that should be half a day

    I don’t think I have 10k into my $15,000 truck this year.....but it was mostly rebuilt before I ever put plates on it

    I couldn't agree more. I've never thought about it because my wife still works but that's about right. 5 days on the road covers the house expenses for the month.
