    That's a bi-monthly settlement. Expenses (truck,ins,fuel) were in the $6000-$7000 range (fuel was almost $4/gal back then. Is that math too hard for you?

    You know whats funny? I was making great money when the oil was booming and we were paying 4.00. The increase in rate and with tight capacity people were happy to pay $4/mi+ to move their stuff. Now fuel is half that and so is the rate. Problem is only the fuel cost got halved.

    If your making that for 3 years should be able to pay cash. Instead of a 4500 truck payment

    So why does one think your revenue had to go up substantially to make a truck payment. In order to break even revenue only has to go up the exact amount to cover the payment plus the higher insurance. This is why cj and i say 1 week covers the truck.

    I've been out of the truck almost 3 years. That was the first one out of the file for 2013, and didn't take any editing to post. Could I post the rest of the settlement? Sure, but it's safe to say that my rep around here is just a tad bit better than yours, and I don't need to bother digging any more to refute you, as the longtimers on here all know I shoot straight.
    Keep on keeping on, supertrucker!
