    37 on a w-2, it's low, but it adds up to 220ish dollars a day.
    I could live great on that if I only ran 5 loads a week.

    I would switch (both those jobs suck balls BTW). 6x500 is 3000miles plus hourly. The choice seems obvious.

    Yeah, but who wants to work 6 days a week for what would be average at best pay?

    @tucker With 11 years safe driving you can do better than either unless being home daily is that important to you.

    If that foundry has their holding tanks in a stupid location or down a long run of hose it'll really increase offload time. 'About an hour' tells me that might not be the case, but it's something to consider.
