Last month we DH'd an RGN ~600 miles to Baltimore for $2,950 on ~600 loaded miles.

That's about the farthest I can remember.

I'd ask for $3,300 on the first load and $2,700 for the second. Since Load #2 paid more, that's a bonus.

I hear ya. I said, "At $3,100 I'll do it, but I really should have $3,500 to make this work for me." Well, I got $3,100. But them again, we've done 70 loads for this broker so far in 2010.
