    How much do you make when it's in the shop. Maxxforce is the worst motor ever.

    You heard wrong. Laredo is dirt cheap outbound.

    Your right, I just got my 2nd load. It's coming out of Laredo for 1289+ 128.9 surcharge. It's a 1249 mile load which puts it at roughly 1.13 per mile
     
    Dominick253 and Getsinyourblood Thank this.

    You can't survive for long on that kind of average. I suggest talking to some folks at your carrier and see what lanes they got to keep your average up around at least a buck forty. And then stick to those lanes.
     
    Dominick253 and crb Thank this.
