Good questions.... here are the answers.

It's 600 miles from El Paso to anywhere there is a possibility of freight... like Lorado, Dallas, or California. With 3 avg loads a day I thought it was better to stay put since there were times I was the only truck there. They didn't want to put something on my truck that would require a swap so they kept using teams until a trip came that did not need to be delivered till over the weekend.

Yes.. I checked getloaded.com and posted my truck and called some of the LTL loads.... but they were way too low.

Have you ever found a load that even covered fuel on getloaded.com ???
