There is a load that leaves this tues 5/15 anytime.
Carson, CA to Portland Oregon.
977 miles. $1800
1-800-233-0026
Ask for dispatch.
Do the load, then wait for the check to come
That's how you get paid.

thks Sid....was just joking around, think I just booked a load thru Schneider tho going to Florida, only weighs 10,000lbs and thats what I liked best about it, paying almost 1.50 mile, besides getting to google eyes all the scantly clad Florida ladies!

Nope you didn't miss anything,he hasn't been there before as a O/O,wait till he sees the "freight" out of there....... :lol:

His $1.50 is gonna turn to $1.00 real fast after he gets done deadheading to GA

He could get lucky and get a good load out. Just has to do his homework first. But true, Florida is hard to get good loads, but not impossible. I have seen a 1.72 load going to NC out of there. But it was a Flatbed load.

Can you really save that much? 0.5 mpg sound pretty good... But I bet the roof fairing costs a bundle.. any idea of the pricing?

Before you price new.. find out what fits.. and check used. I've seen some in the WANT-AD in the past, buddy of mine his dad bought one used, still looked brand new, not sure what he paid but couldn't stop saying he paid less then half then brand new.

check truck junk yards,usually unless roll over accident the roof fairing in undamaged,there is that place just at the bottom of the bridge on the QEW going west in St. Cathrines....know where I am talking about?

That's about what i have gained, when adding it to my 96 Volvo.
If you gonna run 65+, I'd definitely recommend it.
I've got my brand new, and with matching paint, and installation, it was $1,700. But that was 1996!
