    Well, looks like my response was deleted, go figure. It's still a funny read. Guys hauling loads like that are typically getting 6-8k per run, dedicated projects, and multiple runs per week. I know guys running windmill loads, and those are no joke gold mines. Pftttt 8800/month. I wouldn't get out of bed for that kind of money for those loads.

    So I’m getting a second phone. My phone currently is Verizon. I was thinking T mobile for my second line. I like their data package. Any of you have T mobile and if so how do you like it?

    I’ve got it coverage continues to get better. The only area coverage I don’t like is Wyoming on 80. Have data coverage in Cheyenne and Laramie. Phone still works and eastern Montana phone works data in and out. I like it.

    I have the unlimited magenta plan. They say they can throttle it after 50g of data in congested areas, never had it happened. I use 60-70g of data.
    Unlimited hotspot, I use it to run a Roku stick.

    You mind if I ask what you're paying? I think I'm looking to switch carriers.

    I’ve got 5 lines paying $200 but I’ve been with them for just over 20 10 years and get a veterans discount.

    I had an interesting load today. Went to a marble quarry up in Pickens County, GA to pick up powered marble going to some place in Indiana that I won't see because I'm dropping it in Trenton.

    What was interesting about it is Pickens County is in North Georgia, which is very rural and mountainous. It's also just one county north of where I lived when I lived in GA. I spent a lot of time running up and down 575 and playing in those mountains in my Jeep and doing search and rescue training. I fkn miss living there. A lot.
     
    Steelersjunkie and MIT Thank this.

    My neighbor cracks me up. She saw me leave around 5:15 this morning. So I just got home a minute ago (8pm) and she says "shouldn't you be out working?". Ummm... 560 miles today plus a 20 mile round-trip commute. Dropped a load off, picked another one up. 20 minutes left on my 14 when I got parked. What exactly did YOU do today??? Sheesh, friggin civilians.
     
    MIT Thanks this.
