Two weeks after your first load that 1500 dollars won't matter. It will be like a night on the town.
And if it matters now your so close to being screwed it doesn't matter. It's not enough to replace a tranny or rebuild your engine. get a flat. You will make more money and be happier.

How about 2.03 out of Tampa to Cleveland? Will have to tarp it tho. After sitting on my rear whining about a bad tooth for the last two weeks this one is gonna make me work.

I hope they're still there. Also I left 2 almost new tires, one a recap new, the other original.
New recap 11/22.5R
original 295/75/22.5R
with cheap prices on then too if anybody needs some rubber.larry2903 Thanks this. -
That's nice you was able to be nit picky and I'm glad you got your tooth better. I'm still learning the ropes and still haven't had a full week yet. But thanks for the phone convo we had last week.

The 1500 won't break me. It's just a lot less than what I like go see in my reserve. Ten tires then another 2900 on shocks exhaust and ac work in the last month so it's already lower than the 10k I like to see. I just wanted to be sure it wasn't like a flats get better rates but sit and deadhead more. And vans rates are worse blah blah. And it all equals out in the wash. If it's more income significantly it's almost a no Brainer. I'm 39 so the work doesn't scare me. I worry more about inexperience and scales. Getting my chops busted for not knowing what I'm doing

I started not knowing a thing. Heck I didn't even realize I could put 40k on the split axle. And now that you know that the rest is easy. As for DH? Most of my loads are within 30 miles of my drops. Many are less then 10. The 3 loads I have taken that I DH more then 50 or so, 1 the agent paid me to DH, 1 paid $7.9k on 2500 miles so was well worth the 300 mile DH and the other still averaged over $2 on all miles. If your careful about where you go then you shouldn't have a DH prob.
And if you can dig into your mattress then I would say go flat. Customers are always happy to see you. -
Lol now you're talking!

Well I made it to Mercertown wish me luck. I don't know if I'll sleep much tonight half excitement to get back to flatbed half nerves. I hate changing carriers!

me also its sucks ...but not as much as not making money
