I agree, I'm all for hauling the long runs. I cant make any money on the short ones. I'm saving to buy a newer truck that does a little better but the one I have has been great. Might just stick with it. If we can get some runs to Yellownife or some of the other northern areas I'm all for it. I agree I'm going to run to make money.

I have a ´94 Freightliner FLB with 1,301,182 mls on the clock.
Currently, I am hauling medical supplies from Albuquerque to Las Vegas. 125 mls to go but needed to take a break.
Next I will haul livestock to St.Louis

Jacksonville - Corpus Christi and back again.

Gems & veggies...just like the boss.


Buy some stock, too guys....it makes the company stronger and nets you more money. I bought $500 yesterday and it's already almost $550.

Back at the headquarters. Got 118 Bucks for the company, repaired my truck and got it refueled. Have to rest for the next 13 hrs now, which would mean until 7 am my time.

I takes me about 18-20 legs depending on fuel stops, repairs, etc. I can get up to 75 out of my truck, but stick to 4mph over to avoid tickets. (hint hint)

In a slower truck, it will take a lot longer. Which hot rod do you have?
