We got the standard 35 cents per mile. XPO has a hard time competing in the great N/W, kind of figured to drive south. Always a crapshoot, but we have family getting up in their years.

Ran a OH to WA last week. Stayed in service while visiting family and friends. One would ya could ya. Relocated to Los Angeles area, arrived yesterday. Loaded for Dallas today. Nice Western swing!

Tryed Memphis for a day, snagged a load out of Nashville. A/C gave up, new shop thought it may have been overcharged. So far it’s working good. Did some back roads in N/W, NC, to load for Cincinnati area.

Monday, loaded for Larado out of Detroit. A/C compresser, decided to tear up the clutch/pulley assembly. Had to give up our first load, in almost 5 years of hauling freight. Definitely brought a good roll to a stop. Ready to rock on!

Larado to Detroit, grinding along!

Grinding along!

Knowing your approximate CPM is important, but the variables of this business diminish its value. If the business can allow 1/3 of your gross to be used as the operations fund, not counting fuel. Then you’re in the ballpark for most problems and annual expenses.

MT at the J, in Larado. Weather is a reasonable 77 and clear.

Loaded out of Larado yesterday, for Detroit. Thursday, Friday was a Walton, KY load. Nice to find some cool weather!

Chicago Land to Huntsville, AL last night. Last week figured out what was causing the thunk, when changing direction, and on occasion when up shifting. Right rear axle splines!

Weekend run to a undisclosed drop in CA. Then meandering towards Seattle for a flight to AK, on the 11th. Will return to the madness late July.

On the eighth day! Loaded El Paso, TX to NC. Not sure if we were being lazy, stupid or despondent.
