1,000,000 miles on it, it’s like having a brand new truck again. Every #### thing has been replaced. Except the driver seat. That’s gonna need a lot of help.
Best fleece purchase program?

just aslong the trailer has nothing in it. because even adding 50lbs causes it to overheat on a 1% uphill grade

#### son!
A buck thirty a mile PLUS fuel surcharge?
That means you will go broke in nine months instead of three.RedRover, IluvCATS and kemosabi49 Thank this. -
Not in Mississippi cost of living is cheaper.....
-
Alright, so it will take a year to go broke.
Seriously.
Why get sucked into a deal like that? The average spot market rate for a dry van is above $1.85 a mile for dry van. A good dry van owner operator can average well above that. Why cut your own throat? I completely understand the concept of being suicidal, but back away from the lease agreement if you feel those tendencies.RedRover Thanks this. -
Hell, it’s above 2.12 per mile nationally for van. And frankly I’m going to be pretty upset with you if you’re running flatbed for less than 3 bucks a mile at this point.
Anyone not running on a percentage of the load(a rate which they themselves can negotiate) that is 75% plus right now, and has a truck payment and pays for fuel and and and, is a ####ing idiot. Only a retard could go broke right now in this market. And that means guys leased on that aren’t percentage, can’t deal with brokers and settle for cheap freight. It’s so #### good right now that I’m even about to give it another shot. But I #### sure wouldn’t do it for 1.35... wouldn’t even climb into my truck to run flatbed for less than 2.80-3.00 a mile at a minimum. And you can forget about tarping lolLepton1 Thanks this. -
Ya but these are going to be your own 2011 Freightliners by the time 2021 comes around. They will be vintage.

It’s van.... hauling auto parts for Toyota 98% drop and hook -
Why in the world would you haul that freight for anything less than $2 a mile?RedRover Thanks this.
-
Yep even power only would be over 2 right now.Lepton1 Thanks this.
