    It's that place that only lets me in far enough to reach a few bases. Something about a green zone and that black smoke rolling from my pipe when i get on the throttle is considered very bad to those greenies.

    fb can pull 3-4 a mile all week long. I do it. prices have dropped a little when fuel prices dropped but last year was pulling plastic pipe from knoxville tn to island in ny for no less than 5 a mile. 3600 to 3800 for one day. 700 miles. I live 15 miles south of knoxville and would take one up and work my way back down to ktown and call it a week. 7-8000 week. It dried up a little partly because I dont want to ny anymore. that was my schedule for 5 years I dont evben search foor loads under 2 a mile.I am picking my second load monday in 7 years under 2 a mile and the only reason was to get off island and tolls to get over by cleveland oh. 3- 4 all day long
