    Lumber basically sucks on any trailer these days. My tare is 28500 and they want to put an extra pack on than the 32000 trucks for the same money. I will not do it. The last lumber load I did the buyer had to pay me an extra 150.00 for the extra pack. FYI Mobile Al, to Roanoke VA. Getting paid by the thousand feet on paticuliar species green or kiln dried would be nice!

    Or you can decide there is not much on the board worth trying to get out of Atlanta with so you see 2 loads of roll stock paper going 34 miles across town and at $350 a piece and no bs on either end you decide that you will take $700 for the day on 136 miles until this happens....it happened while at shipper on load no.1 - another day in the trucking business!
