    Fixed cost are about 800/WK before fuel. I'd like to think my hustler mentality and strong work ethic could handle this.

    $2400 a month for the truck, figure another $600 a month for the trailer. Then add maintenance on top of that. With the way things are right now I wouldn't want that liability.

    My decent weeks are 1500-2k in fuel. Then you need to set back taxes and maintained, retirement, pay yourself something oh and even if under warranty down time your bills still come in and pay for rooms (400 just for hotel last week and 3200 for the repair) oh and they will still need that 800 even if you only made 200 before the breakdown.

    I'm aware of this.

    Also know that nothing risked is nothing gained.
