    Is it for real or is it a joke?

    I call BS. NC is at a minimum of two day wait for a permit and Sc is a minimum 24 hour and VA is 3-5 days. The numbers seem right, but it took more than two days. Two days of travel, and a week of waiting on permits. I should say those waits are for super load permits.(the big machine)
     
    RefMata, gentleroger and Rideandrepair Thank this.

    If you look him up on social media he has a “Heavy Haul Blueprint” program that he’s selling for the low low price of $2k.

    What's a decent rate for 7 axle if $6.50 is cheap? I pull a flatbed so I'm just curious...

    I charge $8 and up for 7axle permit load depending on weight and location.
    For example if I go through TN where my permit for that state can be 300-600.

    I do moves for less but there normally non permit and something to get me to or from a permit job.

    And I know for a fact 8 axle isn’t paying $26 a mile.

    Not being a ########, but there are way too many variables to answer this. 6.50 may actually be a good rate or it may be a horrible rate. There are just too many moving parts to say.

    That’s a strong statement.
