    Eh. People that talk about it think the $ isn't believeable: but then they hear what the work is and run off. I don't feel like I expect too much- I ain't scared to pay for good help, just haven't found anyone that's worth it.
    So I spose I'd say I'm no longer searching, just open to the idea.

    It takes a certain type that is for sure. You have to crave it or you will hate it IMO. I like throwing 100lb tarps in windy blizzards and 95 degrees and high humidity. I actually crave the tough stuff man....hard to explain to some.

    I used to throw 2 8' drops minimum 2x a day usually 3x 5/6 days a week. Never thought it was much work.
    Now I prolly don't tarp 15 times a year. Roll in, load n secure n roll out. Saves me a lot of time if nothing else.

    Depends what you're hauling under the tarps, imo. :)

    Well after a horrible showing yesterday after having issues with my alternator, we managed to salvage the trip today with 534 miles. All but 170 miles of that was us routes through indiana and illinois.
