I figured I might as well start one of these things, since they are so popular here.

Sitting in XXXXXXXXXXX right now. Just delivered a 4400 lb shipment. Total miles: 1002 (including deadhead). Total days involved: 1 1/2. Total revenue: $2009.70. Fuel costs: $742.20.

Now I'm burning up 10 hours in the sleeper waiting for a reload at the same place I just unloaded at, heading to either XXXXXXXXX or XXXXXXXXX. Then I'll probably get another reload heading right back here, where I will repeat ad nauseum.

I was running short runs out of XXXXXXXXXXXX last week. Average trip was about 200 miles (including 50% deadhead miles), and they paid me around $450 on average. I did 6 of them last week, and 2 this week. Product supply issues have put that on hold for a little bit, but they were pretty easy runs, and they were close to home.

The learning curve here lasted about 2 weeks while I learned how to use the Landstarve system. There's a lot of crap on the board that nobody in their right mind (and Steve Booth) would haul. Still, I've managed about $11,000 in the 3 1/2 weeks I've been here, and most of that has been in the past 2 weeks. Running straight off the load board is a recipe for disaster, but if you get in good with a few agents, you'll have more work than you know what to do with.

There. I just provided more real information in a single post than Steve has in 4 threads. I eagerly await the claims of BS.

That's BS, MISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's no way the town of XXXXXXXXXXX has that much good paying freight, it's all cheap.

:roll: :roll: fuel sounds too low.

That's one big f-ing town 200 miles??????? :roll: :roll:

Fixed

:roll: :roll: :roll:

:lol: :lol:

I forgot, congrats on the new gig Rev. 8)

ROFLMAO :lol:

Got 196 gallons at the Pilot for $3.779 per gallon, of which I'll get back $0.04 per gallon next Monday. I checked the cost plus prices for TA and Petro, and they were around $3.99 per gallon. Can't wait for those prices to hit the pumps.

I'm purposely leaving the cities out, because pretty much everything I'm hauling never hits the load boards, and the agents I'm working with are running only this freight. I'm being protective of my loads.

Worst load I hauled was from Moorhead, MN to St. Paul, MN for fuel money. $251.63 on 385 miles (including my 140 mile deadhead from Milbank, SD). That was the third load I hauled. I won't be doing it again.
