Willy,
Check out www.jettransport.com. They are out of Middlebury,IN and use o/o to transport campers, rv's, etc., throughout lower 48, Canada,and Alaska. Pay extra for Alaska run. Got info from them last week. Not really had time to look at it carefully...you might want to give them a call. 800-825-8407. Good luck

Hey Willy!
If you get into hauling cars and get set up to pull a 3 or 4 car beaver with a dully let me know, If you set up for more that will even be better, and send me your rates. I can get 2 or 3 costomers at any given time. The starting point would be Pittsburgh, Pa. and the miles will range from 250 to 400 miles, 2 maybe 3 days a week.

HO BOY-- There's BIG bucks to be had hauling hot shot car-rv stuff!!!
With your Dodge Ram/Chevy 3500 pickup. Or with your beat up weak tractor. BS. This is a new BS fad.

The equipment may work, but the business doesn't.

Come on Weave!!!x( Give the guy some credit for trying. 10 cents a mile may be big bucks to someone that isn't doing anything.

It is better to haul short because of all the empty miles you have to run to get back home.
It only take about 50k to get set up and about 10 years to break even.

You forgot to add the big blue oval that reads (FORD)Find on road disabled---- or ---- Fix or repiar daily
