But, here we are, a day later. You might want to make it $2.12 You may not need much of a cushion, since your main business is not trucking. But most do. To plan so close, and base your rate on your figures, could easilly have you living pay check to pay check. That is a recipe for a short tenure, in this business.[/quote] Ok thanks.

_________________ Where are you coming up with these weird numbers? Can you be specific and break it all down instead of just spouting off random b.s.? First it cost over 1.70 and now 2.25? Fuel would have to be a lot higher than 4.00 a gallon to make a .55cpm increase. If it costs 2.25 to just a truck than Bigdeisel and his nemesis Stevebooth are making less than a Walmart employee. :lol: :lol:
