Well, after sitting down and thinking it over, I have decided to just keep my FLD and run my same old gig. I figured it is tough to find a good used truck that you know won't need anything (hopefully) for at least a year. I know the truck, and I know what's been done to it unlike a used truck from a dealer. I am instead going to do a few things to it to make it a little better such as change the gears, have it detailed and get my led tv installed. This summer I'll add a bumper n visor and have it fully detailed and polished.

I decided to keep my run because I can't beat the pay and only being gone 3 days isn't terrible. Once things get better and I get my house paid off, then I may go get a trailer or a new truck, till then I've decided to save the $1,000 a month in a special account and spend it as I need to.

Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

Sounds like a smart move. Being gone three days at a time still gives you time to have a social life and do some sports/exercise to try to stay in reasonable shape.
