We usually go to Laredo out of Dallas. Never tried Florida because just the thought of taking a load for .80/m crushes my spirit
Although the right now it's not the best lane... The rest of the year it can make some good money
My thing is I never go into Florida. Stay away at all costs. We try Midwest to laredo. That's our favorite lane .
I do appreciate the helpful post. Truly especially with all the sarcastic and ######## comments. You can get 1.25 out of Florida? I'm lucky to...
Ahhh yes the shooting neighborhoods. We have those too. In a neighborhood like that you can rent a whole house for under 450
Yea cost of living is very low In iowa. There's a lot of things to consider. Two bedroom apartments around here are 550 average

My owner ops make 150k a year.. after expenses. And that's on the lower end
Well around this time each year it's pretty bad. But each one of my drivers pulls atleast 3k miles each week. We average a little less. But before...
Reefers are always over 40k in weight?
You've made some good points. I've heard reefers make a lot of money but there's also issues with load/unload not to mention extra costs...
Not me personally. And like I said that's the goal. Sometimes it gets done. Lately it does not especialy wth tis market. We have a lot of teams so...
We're out of iowa
Well it's not just the average. I'm well aware if I want a good average I stick to short miles in a #### area. But we primarily go for gross...
