    I used to pull a tanker. They loaded it in under 12 minutes. My bills were waiting when I was done. Drove 102 miles each way. Took 45 minutes to unload. Drove back. In theory it takes about 5 + - hours. If I slept 2 hours per shift, by the end of the week I could amass enough for one more run. Am I right? Perfect world, can make two runs a day.

    Depending on the locations I'll do anywhere from 1-4 loads a day.
