    Coils are the easiest load there is. Don't be scared of them. as long as you put enough chains on, it's perfectly safe. And don't tail gate, you don't want to be slamming on the brakes and testing those chains.

    How about the receiver and get directions from them. And then call agent second.

    Ok bare with me as I type this out on a phone.

    So these two pics are my spreadsheet for the month of January.

    Now I have seen on here where you guys are saying I could make quite a bit more money at Mercer running flat bed.

    Let's also please keep in mind I have a truck payment of 731 a week and I put 135 a week in a maintenance account (brand new 2016 evolution, 4 year 500k warranty, which is why I put away so little).

    How should my numbers be if I were at mercer with those kinds of miles?

    So I'm an idiot. Seems that in the last week and a half or so I have managed to lose my EFS card. Well heck I need fuel to get home. Grrrrr rrerr

    I love them. I've used them 4-5 times now. Best investment ever. You have to drive a little slower but full chains in under 10 min by yourself is well worth it.
     
    Razorwyr Thanks this.

    Forgot to add, this is about an average week for me. This is with 2004 miles total.
