    Today I had a FIRST. In almost 18 yrs I have never been to a shipper and it was on fire, today that changed. It is in appliance park ky but I'll say no names the cop who I talked to said there were 20 fire departments on scene and everything had been evacuated and shut down.

    SNI told me they'd have to reschedule for another day when I called in lol as if they had any other choice. I did get VNU but it still stunk I had 2 back to back for over 4.00 a mile. Oh well on to laredo.

    Hey gotta random question, im really trying to keep track of my expenses cost per mile ect ect.
    I know that I've heard about programs that you can type all your expenses in and it'll add up and calculate your cost per mile, any ideas?

    I don't buy that whole "cost per mile" deal.
    If you drive less for a higher rate vs driving more at a lower rate you really can't figure your expenses cost per mile.

    Driver A driver 120,000 miles at $1.50
    Driver B drives 70,000 miles at $2.00

    Their cost to run per mile will be different because rates and the miles they drive is different.

    What I think about is revenue after fixed and fuel costs

    Tv isn't mounted just yet, im going home to knoxville the end of next week and I'll get it set up then, I love the truck it's been driving great I noticed a little bit of oil leak from a seal today it hasn't been bad since I've cleaned it I've been keeping an eye on it, but at first it freaked me out till someone told me if its gushing oil then it's a bad sign I'll post a pic the passenger side is completely dry so im not sure if I should worry about this or not.
