    I think somebody is. I see Denver flatbed loads @ 48k# under a buck a mile frequently.

    @gekko1323, you're runnin a van aren't you?

    If you have a reefer you can do decent delivering to Denver and drop down to the valley and load potatoes.

    Never go into CO/WY blind, always find something coming out first.

    Alliance, NE is about the same distance for spud seed too.

    Yeah, I get a great rate coming into Denver and Cheyenne. The problem is getting out! What valley are you referring to for the taters? You mean west of Pueblo? I know there are melons down in the southeastern plains, but those are probably all under lockdown.

    That's a great rate for such a long haul. You're pulling flatbed, right?

    Yes - step, that was just a lucky pull at the time. Else I would have bounced home.

    Smart. Too dangerous with the idiots who won’t slow down when you can’t see more than 20 feet in front of your truck.
    I drove through it the other night was as bad as it gets. Lasted for about 60 miles.
     
    Sons Hero, D.Tibbitt, Siinman and 2 others Thank this.
