This thread isnt to brag,but what a solo can do by not turning any loads down.Tuesday morning,Jerry loaded in Cleveland Oh,delivered Tuesday afternoon,Mt Clemens Mi,186 miles for $696,Wed,he loaded Mt Sterling Mi,Delivered Columbus Oh 176 miles,and $599,that afternoon,layover was Cleveland so I told him he may as well just go home,he lives in Akron,OH.On his way home,he was given a load picking back up in Dearborne Mi,coming back here to Youngston Oh.Load picks up Thur afternoon,so he is leaving this morning for Mi.Yes that 400 miles dh and only 590 miles loaded is quite crazy,but the pay is at $2200 for the three loads,which is more than $ 2.20 for all miles.Yes the dh to Mi is quite far,but in the overall picture,the truck is doing very well.I know we are busy right now.Three more weeks and I'll be back to work,going crazy sitting at home.!1st eye operation is doing great,anyone needing cateract surgery,take it from me,and I'm a big chicken when it comes to Doctors,it doesnt hurt not one bit,your awake,but you have no Idea its even being done,(less than 15 mins).Your actually in the hospital 2 hours,but the actual operation is only 15 mins.

Me too, me too! :DThough I must say that weeks like this are NOT the norm:
Picked up in Searcy, Ar, Sat, delivered Park Rapids, Mn, Mon. Picked up in Buhl, Mn, Mon eve, delivered Warren, Mi, Tues eve. Picked up in Avon, Oh, Wed afternoon, delivered Winston Salem Thurs morning. Picked up in Raleigh Thurs eve, delivered Teterboro, NJ this morning. Picked up 17 miles away in Mahweh an hr ago, for delivery tomorrow in Raleigh - no rush.
That comes in at 3400 loaded miles for the week.
Guess that makes me the windshield this week - a bit grubby, but fine, once I get clean again. :D:D:D (I'm not forgetting the weeks when I'm the bug, though....)
