    Maybe he is having to rent a semi truck during downtime.
    If that wiring harness and radiator job costs him 15k. That will set him back 1month. He still has payments of all sorts.
    I can see the issue.

    I had enough after 25 years last year. I went to work in a iron ore mine and take home way more money, wish I would have made the move years ago!

    What kind of other jobs did you have that made more? Sounds like you should be making pretty good money with good home time.

    I would want that rate for the miles run. It looks like a short run, and a newer truck.
