    What are your average loads paying? How many miles a week are you running? Isn't it 12cpm for maintenance? At the beginning of every week you are $1000 in the negative? Does trailer payment take care of tires and such?

    You did a great job! Been tarping for several years now.... If you have an open mind.... you can teach yourself how to do it more efficiently. You will also learn how to cope with the wind.

    Hell I think every load I tarp I figure out a better way to do that type of load. I struggled with the front and back of loads for a month and finally it clicked. Now I know how much tarp I need, how straight it has to be, and where to place the bungees for the best effect.

    Tarping sucked at first, it's getting easier and easier as I go though.

    I read in another section that Gravdigr had some family issues and had to hang up his keys. I really liked his posts.
