I'm not counting the stackable loads in my numbers. I had a stack of pallets once, but don't remember how many there were. That probably would have set a record for number of skids. eb

Deadhead as income is so small a variable it is negligible, but deadhead cost to operate is a real killer. It's how bottom feeders compete while keeping a respectable "rate". I know you understand this. I just have to beat my dead horse, because some still don't understand it. eb
