    How far are you from Beloit? I may have someone you could call and get one used from.

    Wise Plan. 92 cents is not good. There must be some people hauling for some very cheap rates now days. Rates are back to 1999,2000.,,I'm pretty sure every thing else has gone up since then.

    Why would they think anyone would deadhead over 800 miles? That's nuts... Unless it paid very very well.

    Around 130 miles. I may be able to get a good deal on new one here. They may be on sale, they are going to check. I might ask for the number if this doesn't work out. Thanks, appreciate it.

    Fill in the gaps with other brokers. I think that will be your way out of this funk. I'd help you do it, in fact.

    I can't figure out why they offer you such long deadheads... Must be because they aren't any loads at all in your area. Frankly those are crazy deadhead miles.

    As BHW said, if you took them they would break you.

    Almost makes you wonder if the broker isn't making something off those deadhead miles and pocketing it.
