What would you do?

Hypothetically...

Long Haul coast to coast. Even if I get as far as Salt Lake City. I'm still making a ton of money. You figure 4000 miles x $2.00 which equals $8,000 and another pick up for 2000 miles x another job pick up in Salt Lake City for $2.00 per mile. That's another $4,000. $12,000 for a job that takes a week. I have a buddy who can handle the brokers for 10% which is a bit high, but he can get me jobs constantly. So really I'm making 4000 x $1.80 and 2000 x $1.80 which still equals $10,800. Don't plan on having a lot of time off though unless you hit 70 hours or are stuck somewhere. Should be able to make it back by the 70 hour mark though.

 

But, yeah I have no idea what I'm talking about right? lol

 

I go where the money is. I see a lot of potential in trucking as an Owner Operator.

 

Explain to me why that plan wouldn't work. I didn't include IFTA and the other expenses into that figure.
