    cost per mile supersedes revenue

    The front half of your van is a mini RV and the back half is for hauling freight. Outfit the van accordingly.

    Can you make a living with one skid

    There's a lot of one-skid loads out there, but as Dan said, carriers aren't going to sign on a one-skid vehicle. You might talk to some, as you might be able to get a load or two a week that pays $500 a week, but the back of your van needs to scream "freight" and not "living space." Carriers...

    Doordashing in down time?

    Yeah, it all comes down to the individual on how professional things are gonna be. I do large Drive and Catering orders, so I have 2 full size catering bags, a medium size bag, and of course the original Paris Hilton Beach Tote as a 4th backup. I've got 3 large pizza bags, and even an insulated...

    Doordashing in down time?

    Don't forget about Dollar General, Walgreens and Walmart. LOL I don't know why it's different, but if you're logged in to any gig app your regular personal policy doesn't cover anything. Do Google search for "DoorDash insurance" and read all about it. It varies wildly among insurers. Some...

    Doordashing in down time?

    Yeah, the Sprinter and then the Grand Am both totalled within a few months. Neither was my fault. With the Sprinter I didn't have as much as a scratch, and I was going 60 MPH. In the Pontiac I was going 25 MPH and despite the seat belt broke 3 ribs that weren't even in contact with the belt...

    Doordashing in down time?

    The biggest thing is, you'd have to add Rideshare coverage to your vehicle insurance. "Rideshare" means coverage for not only people (as with Uber or Lyft) but also food delivery. Without Rideshare coverage, while you are delivering food you will have absolutely, positively zero insurance...

    We are ingesting plastics now,,,,noooo way???

    Did you see where a bunch of ice cream was recalled because it had plastic particles in it? It's a shame, because it was the most spreadable ice cream ever made

    We are ingesting plastics now,,,,noooo way???

    OK, that's the third time you've accused me of copying from Wikipedia. Prove it or STFU. Also, "my meal delivery friend...lol...," are you that f'ing stupid that you think you can square up like that with the Forum Administrator and not get smacked back?

    I anxiously await her proof that plastic particles are added to margarine to make it more spreadable. Especially since, like, you know, plastic isn't an approved food additive in any country on the planet, and, in fact, if plastic is found to be in a food product, that food product is recalled.

    The Left Wing Essay Site? No. I spent 26 years in the foodservice industry beginning as a chef in a French kitchen for many years, then in restaurant management, R&D, and Food Handling Safety. In those capacities, one tends to learn a few things, even before Wikipedia. Not in the context of my...

    Well... no, margarine doesn't contain small particles of plastic. Butter in the US is at least 80% fat, about 18% water, and 1-2% milk solids. Higher quality butter, like European and Irish butter is 82% fat, making it creamier and more spreadable. Amish butter, by the way, is 84% fat...

    The southern border.

    Unless you have some sort of proof of that claim, if I were you I'd apologize to the "you" whom you singled out for a personal attack. Without such proof, it's a comment wholey uncalled for.

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    Facebook, Twitter, they're exactly the same as far as official news sources.

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    The occasional Twitter post to help make or support a point is one thing, but flooding the forums with Twitter posts is spam. These are discussion forums, not news or Twitter feed forums.

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    That's dangerously close to making an accusation that, unless you can prove it as a fact and not an opinion, will get you banned. Also, one more snark addressed to a "you" will get you banned. Thirdly, Biden is not an adult in charge, he's senile and out to lunch.

    That comment would have at least a smidgen of high-horse credibility if you had pointed it at RLENT, as well. But you didn't.

    Probably the latter.
