    Should be good. I end up having to use one 8 foot drop as my 4 foot lumber tarps cant be turned like steel tarps can be.

    I picked up in talmadge Ohio and the smoke tarp worked fine. They checked it and made me put tape around metal hooks on bungie straps. Maybe a different person has a different way.

    When did 265 around Louisville become tolled?

    I know the new bridge is tolled, heard nothing about 265!

    Don't worry, "It's Included In The Rate" ...

    If it's not tolled it's going to be. They have cameras and everything setup on it.

    I have to agree with you I don’t have a fixed amount of miles I run to break down my Repair, Ins, and other cost into so like other businesses I use an accounting program to track my cost per category and compared against my gross income for some one to know what there future cost per mile is no more than an educated guess there are too many variables in the cost of fuel and repairs to be 100% accurate this dose not mean I don’t need to know the general Area were I break even and turn a profit on a per mile basis but since I am always looking for the highest paying loads I can find above that Area it’s not a major problem

    No need to put up a sign that says welcome to Indiana. The crappy ### road will let you know you’re already there
    I mean seriously they got what $100 million for leasing that toll road is it so difficult to buy some concrete or asphalt?

    Are you talking about the stretch from I-65 in Indiana that goes to I-71 in Kentucky? Far as I know that section has been a toll for a couple years now...

    If you talking about the entire length of 265 I haven't heard anything about that.
