    Going to Colorado. You have to account coming back, at least part of the way, empty. I wouldn't go for less then $5 per mile

    If the US Govt would allow Colorado to share their #1 product with the rest of the country then you could probably get out of there with a high dollar load of ganja!

    You know that Memento Joe and his son partake in the leaf. Maybe they just don't want everyone else to get some.

    A few weeks ago I went home to San Antonio empty from Blanca, CO. (long story about why I was there in the first place) Don't sweat it. Just don't go back unless you make a killing going in.

    Also, tell us what you end up doing, because I'm nosey like that, and I'm not alone. :D

    Are you also looking at LTL freight? You might find a 5000 lb load on 4 pallets paying more than that - provided the shipper and receiver can take a full size truck.

    I usually end up in Abilene or Amarillo from Colorado . Most time it's beer but last time I hauled Agricultural seed mix and some honey products . You won't lose money if you go in at a decent rate , don't waste time and get out of there asap .
