    308 miles so it's
    308 miles @ 775 $ is 2.51 a mile. Easy no tarp load. Not a big money maker but if you want/ need to get to ok city that's 600 bucks after fuel for half a days work. And it's the middle of no where west texas. Not exactly a lot of manufacturing out there.

    Normally I wouldn't do it, but if I was close by and had a good load lined up the next day in ok city it could work if it was just a little lighter and I could scale it.

    I won't tie up a day and a half for $600. I bounce, but that's just me. Furthermore, I know where those reels are being loaded and they pull a boatload of wind.

    My brand of smokes still has the Indian on the pack.

    My grocery store still carries a brand of flour called Indian Head. Speaking of that, we have a town here in MD named Indian Head. With what happened to the Redskins, I’m almost surprised there hasn’t yet been calls to change the name of that.
