    7 years ago I averaged $1.92 pulling produce out of southern California. $2K seems about right unless the rates dropped. I guess it's who you know and what you pull.

    You always want to charge accordingly when running back in forth, in and out of Cali. Especially if you are running North and South constantly. Keep in mind fuel is expensive and the speed limit is 55mph. Not to mention there is much more traffic and mountain driving. Be sure to compensate for these added expenses.
