Have you tried Starbucks? Or Community Coffee?

I gotta admit I love TH's, but there coffee does suck. Just tossing that out. There Boston Creme donut gets 4 stars and I like the sandwiches.

I'm only doing a 21' box because of oal requirements. Also, the tag axle is because the kW has a lot longer nose on it than a cascadia and I'm going with a little shorter wheel base than what's on the sst100 cascadia's. It'll have like an 11' or 12' rear overhang with the lift up and 8ish with...

I believe so as well. Just gotta determine the mpg and the quality of that paccar engine. I'm still nervous about going that route.

I agree except I would be putting a 100" bolt on it but still interesting.

That sounds nice. I don't guess they offer that for those of us from Louisiana do they?

I make my coffee in the truck. I'm more a fan of the boston creme pie doughnut, apple fritter and the muffins. Hmmm. Maybe that's why I'm gaining weight.

Any advice or thoughts on this setup or engine would be greatly appreciated. It'll be another truck in my small fleet. I won't be driving it, it'll be for a team I already have.

Oh, sorry Dave, I forget that not everything is a straight truck in this industry. I'm looking at a sst100 from bolt on a cascadia. I'm having trouble getting my salesman to respond to my questions and minor issues. He'll respond but it takes 2-3 weeks. So, I was looking at Bolts website and...

How about an mx-13? Ultra shift. No idea on rears, I guess whatever I spec...

Heart broken yet hopeful. I just discovered Tim hortons this year and I love them! I'm hoping this will cause them to expand in the US. I just don't want Burger King quality Tim hortons.

I couldn't tell you how to pursue this. I love this industry. I want as many people in it as the market can take and I want them to love it as well. I am though looking at this very differently than you. I'm also a lot younger I assume. I want to build a fleet up so I can get off the road and...

You have kids too?

Also, you say you have insurance and now you'll be paying 100% of it. Are u prepared for that increase? And are you ok being away from your family as much as is required in expediting?

I'd find out. That's a huge difference. Even the A-Team left a nice truck because the truck got poor mpg and it cut too deep into their pockets. Also, 20cpm will cover about 1/2 or less of your fuel so that comes out of your pocket for the extra. It's things to consider.

What kind of truck and what mpg is it getting? If you get good fuel economy and fuel smart I think you might can get 25% at the end of the day profit. Now, the 4,000 miles all loaded or does that include dh also? What's your dh pay?

You pay fuel? Pic is occupational insurance. (Workmans comp)

Are there any deductions? Oic? Drug tests?

I thought you said you were driving team ? They pay each driver 40%? That's a great deal.

Owning the truck too? Maybe. I highly doubt it though. At .25/cpm all profit your looking at $52,000/year if you run 4,000 miles, 52 weeks a year.
