Doing what i didn't want to do!

How are you going to pay for it , since you claim to be flat broke? I do apologize that I responded in a truthful and factual manner to your topic.... Don't worry bankruptcy is not a stigma as it once was years ago....

 

It is a recipie for disaster, but I know all too well that at some point you have to risk it as there's nothing else to loose. Guess you should jut sit on the couch untill they kick you out of the house.
I just went through all this, and worse. Getting the right people behind you is a must. Unfortunatly with your own authority it's you against the world

 

I just checked the load boards for Blackfoot Idaho within a 100 mile radius and looks like plenty of $2.00 per mile loads for refer.

 

spuds are running $2mi, I pull enough of them to know. lol

onions seem to be paying a little better though.

 

I pull onions on my flat once in a while and I hate it. I don't know how you guys put up with produce places. They treat you like crap and lots are just filled with garbage everywhere and tough to get into.

 

I don't haul to the produce markets. those are what's bad. I mainly to walmarts, and a few grocery dc's they aren't near as bad as they used to be 15 years ago. I have a love hate relationship with walmart. i hate most everything about how they operate but they are fast to unload and almost always take full loads. Way back when I first started driving I did a whole lot of produce markets and it was always multiple pickups and multiple drops.

 

Good luck man but wa and or are about dead, 2 more weeks. Az is dry from June to mid October. So you either haul Idaho potatos or welcome to california. Who cares if it's 2$/mile if the load is 200 miles, takes all day and still ain't made ####. Just an example.

 

I admire your determination and can't wish you anything but the very best! You've got a lot of people cheering for you in your corner.

 

ahhh.. good ol 550's always a ray of sushine. lol
