    Pack it in, you're done.

    It's impossible to run a business, when you don't have the ability to handle simple arithmetic.

    I think his arithmetic is the least of his problems personally, those numbers he posted for the truck alone is a recipe for failure.
    Anyways OP, good luck and keep posting your numbers, celadon is paying % correct?

    $1100 for payment, tags, insurance, etc plus maintenance ... is it really that far off from what SNI/SFI charges for the same thing?

    Yes but the difference is mine is 2016 kw 680, 3 year lease, i dont rely on dispatch to find loads. my tags, insurance, ect is also under 400.00, not over 500.00. My average this week is 1.62 and thats running midwest southeast.

    Take into account his maintenance is included in that. But it is still celadon.

    You probably have more experience than me, thusly giving you more options. It's my goal to get to that point. Who do you run for? Who did you lease from?
