    I don't blame you, o/o'n is a lot of headache right now thats for sure. I will hold on to my truck for awhile and see what happens, but I may do the same and sell mine, but I will have to take some time and think on that one.

    thats what happened this time, I got paid good going out, but ended up in a dead spot and sat for a day, then DH a couple of hundred miles to get a load that paid $1.01 coming back. That just po'd me to no end to actually loose on what started out as a good run.
