Since I don't have to spend extra time finding decent loads for the second truck, doing payroll, doing payroll taxes, dealing with the issues that inevitably come up with a hired driver, dealing with the maintenance issues that arise with having an extra truck and reefer on the road I now have more time to work profitably myself. In all honesty I am working just as much but the truck I'm driving is turning $5000-6000 per month more revenue now than when I had the other truck and that puts the same or more money in my pocket as when I had two. I was only making (when there wasn't problems and I had a 2008 KW with a DPF Cat so there were plenty) about $800-1200 profit a month off the second truck.

That's a nice little come up a month from doing 2 trucks to 1. Are you still hauling with refer all by yourself? That $800-1200 profit is what I'm making every other week off my other truck. You made it a month, did truck repairs eat away at the rest of your profit or was that just it?
