    That's the exact miles that I figured everything on. I was pretty sure it was gonna be 3000.
    So he made some money good! He needs a week for his nerves to calm down.

    At least he didn't lose money. CH Robinson had this one on the board, 600 loaded miles that paid me a 5000 chicken quesadilla voucher.

    I had to run outlaw at night since I couldn't find any oversize escorts on short notice (unless you're into BBW, definitely need to clear the Google search history now).

    Sergi, former TTR member and the expert OD hauler had underbid me, so to cut the rate I rented a truck from the Uhaul heavy haul division. 29.95 and unlimited miles really helped. Too bad Shipping Wars is no longer on TV, I could have been a star.

    With my current $7.99 guacamole and sour cream inclusive quesadilla special, that 5,000 unit special netted you $39,950.

    You did well on that run.

    I took advantage of the agent. Sergi was bidding in rubles which looked astronomically higher compared to my quesadilla bid.

    I was very fortunate.

    So BOB needs to book a load to take an advance against in order to stay afloat? How long has he been playing this check-kiting business plan?

    Believe it or not, that's a 20k steer. Ling Long makes an 18 ply on a 19.5 that meets DOT standards. That slight rake helps with fuel mileage.

    Sometimes how much I save on fuel determines if I get the quesadilla with extra guacamole or just the quesadilla. I'm just trying to survive til the economy rebounds.
