Rank, I believe you, but: I wouldn't let it be known, to your customers. If we are talking US dollars, I would recommend $2.06.

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.

Finally, a picture of Rev. I was told you like to dress all in black. Where are the sunglasses? Which Blues Brother are you in this picture? Jake or Ellwood?

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:

Ya, and Doghouse would be the inspiration for a new Sally Struthers fund raising telethon.
