Over size to Key West

Drives me nuts too. I hug the right side and do a little wiggle to catch a quick view behind me. Couple of construction zones on 20 that went down to single lane. Traffic was actually pretty respectful,.. I guess with something that large its natural to think about self preservation if your in a small car. No one stayed on cruise control putzing beside me either,.. LOL

Yeah it was in Tx. $9600 to just below Key Largo. I forget the name of the island.

I just looked,.. I guess someone else took it or they took it down. I dont see it posted any more.

It paid well enough for what it was. Nothing to really brag about.

I sat for a day because all I was seeing was lumber and multi-stop tarp loads or stacks of trailers going up to Co or Mt,.. places I had no desire to go. It was a last minute decision to take so I could do a nice paying reload set up for tomorrow.

Closer to 1400.

When I believed I could do it with out any escorts it looked like a fantastic rate to me. But as usual,.. there is always a catch somewhere. The all in rate came out to something like $6.69mi. Thats before paying for pole car.

I've never paid for one so I dont know what they charge,.. but I imagine its not cheap for multiple state lines to state lines. I'm pretty much small time when it comes to over size,.. 9' - 11' width with legal height is more my game. Easier the better. Width doesnt really bother me,.. I have a pretty good spacial awareness. Height scares me.

I wish I had the experience to filter out the BS like that load from something that I could actually make some money on. Instead of the trial and error method to learn that these guys are looking for someone just like me to fall into that trap.
