You add those multiple trucks. And a yard, and office staff, and multiple trailers. Amortize all those costs over a year divided by your fleet...
Good to see you’re another one of those muppets that works for free.
Dave_in_AZ curious how many trucks do you own/run?
Wouldn’t be the first time a new head wasn’t straight.
You have to add in the cost of a driver, wether yourself or a hired hand. Would you drive for free? If so I’ve got a few trucks I’d love to put...
$1.60 -1.70 a mile. That’s a real cost to run.
Ok I’ll play, what do you see happening in the Atlanta to Savannah market.
I’d predict it’s a very short term issue. It’s a tough negotiation tactic (which I agree with completely). A deal will be struck sooner rather...
Dad, tell your man to get rid of his old truck if he can’t fix it himself. False economy. I’ll give you the contact number of the man to talk to.

Worked it out. Old Qualcomm cable plugged into the diagnostic port, unplugged it and no more issues.
Have one of my volvo's a 2012 D13, that's having intermittent throttle response issues, it threw a code for TPS sensor, so replaced it with a new...
I'm going to assume you are running it home bobtail, temp tag/insurance/paper log book/invoice or receipt is how I've had my last few trucks...
Have an NASTC card but doesn't work with Pilot, we run very local and Pilot is the closest to us. Suggestions?
Thanks for all the information, way too much hassle and complication for the small benefit we would derive from it.
So consensus is legally requires CDL and Hazmat as it's effectively 990 Gallons in one tank.
this is 990 gallon, my understanding is that under 1000 gallons you don't need a cdl to carry/tow this trailer?
