No AZ for me. I have been trying to stay in the NW for a while. I am doing a favor for my broker this week and had to go to L.A. I hate it here. Besides you know if it was me I would of been hollering at you.
Tell me about Volvos

Ha yeah, it was night though.... Saw a white and black stretched 379 with a spread pull in as i was going to grab a shower, came back out and he was gone....Good call on staying out of the SW, theres hardly and loads and if you do grab one it pays like ####. 4 more trips for me and im starting my local produce runs here in MI.
-
what do you do local?
-
From around my house to chicago produce market (100 miles) or milwaukee, every night. Thats where i make real money and im home everyday. From june to october, then its AZ again.
-
hmm. just one trip a night?
-
That is the kind of stuff I do with the nursery. My last trip was 700 miles round trip. Out for 2 days and home. When I packed beams I used to do 362 miles round trip every day. 10 hour days home every night.

Yup one per night, monday through friday. Ill usually leave around 9pm, deliver at midnight and im back home in bed by 4am. Only draw back is your heavy, one time i was hauling cucumbers, front to back, top to bottom, just out of curiosity i pulled onto CAT scale...... 99,999 lol
-
I take it no scales between the 2 points?
-
There is 2, 1 in MI and 1 in IN, but the MI is always closed, even if open they are mostly set up for multi axles. IN if open i practice my prepass
. Im never that heavy anymore that was only one run. It paid #### good though, if i am over its usually no more than 3-4k. 75% of the time i have blue berries so im no more than 70k lbs. Last year running my 379 ex hd with 3406E 550hp i averaged 6.7mpg the whole summer.
