Aint it gr8 being your own boss, Syncro? All ya gotta do is run 150k miles a year to net 50K. I might be a dumb trucker, but thats 30cpm. It sez right on their webpage! Just think if you can run 170K solo and wear diapers like that crazy female astronaut that did a cannonball run last year? lol
More miles = More money, right?

I almost drenched my laptop with soda from my nose when I saw 4-5 year old truck with 200k miles. Maybe if its an f150, not a class 8 truck

The answers are there, But I do not know where. Optimistic and hopeful dreams, Are all I have so it seems. The future I do not know, So all I can do is take it slow. But I do know it will work out, So I wait and watch without a doubt.

It spent the first couple years in and out of the body shop trying to keep plastic bumpers and fairings on it. Then of course it was parked in the back lot with the front axle knocked out from under it till they got that put back on. Then of course all the time it sat waiting in between loads.

That WOULD be a good mileage truck (maybe) but ONLY for a 'used' price!
