March 2016, where are you going ??

[Slo-Ride]

If you can still afford to do that they must be paying you too much....LOL will work for fuel money!

Its not that its affordable.. Its a wash by the time I waste anymore time sitting. Especially when the weekend hits because all chances of another load are gone out the window for the most part.

 

[Worn Out Manager]

Hopefully Murray can get you a load to KC for Monday... 1 so he can enjoy the weekend in piece ... 2 so you can buy Me breakfast .....

Hot Dogs and Coffee?

if its a 100% wash...why do it?....wait for say the 700 or 600 miler...if it doesn't come along you've lost nothing?.

Hot Dogs and Coffee?

at todays rates...1/2 a dog is pure luxury especially if its an all beef dog...cut it thin and you have tube steak.....oh thats Balogna....LOL

Hot Dogs and Coffee?

May not matter. Dying down fast! Ugh!

 

[fastman_1]

I don't know if that deserves a "like" or a "bummer"..

I don't know either? On 1 hand I put a buck in my pocket, on the other hand it isn't 2 bucks in my pocket,

Well for starters a 700/mile run with elogs will and after dead head will require 2 days. This load was deeper then I wanted to do for these folks because I was fairly sure I would get nothing going back. But I did it anyways. I knew I would be driving back empty, my bad.

Is yours a Canadian calender .. i have 4 days left next week ..

 

[Ragman]

Well I did the same 7 loads this month, and slept in my bed each night.

Hauling freight out and back is a wonderful thing.

 

[xmudman]

Back in service, have SD to myself. Ken, stay away!

Meanwhile, window fixed properly, mirror fixed hillbilly style.

Thanks. Only seriously busy area within 250 miles of here is Minneapolis, and that's full of vans that didn't get out before the storm. Home? 1300 miles if an inch. Kinda kills the urge to deadhead

 

[Opel2010]

It was about the same in Houston...

How's straight truck freight running right now? Rates still crappy? Wanted to get my truck on the road, wondering if I should wait another month for things to hopefully pick up.

Depends. One carrier is in the tank struggling and the other is doing well. Depends on where you are at.
