Portland is no good either, we were just there last week and had to DH back to LA!

Sorry guys, no suggestions here. To us both places stink as far as getting freight out, never had any luck in Denver or Wichita! Did you try Back Haul to see if they have anything heading East? I know the pay sucks but even if you can get something that delivers near St Paul, MN, we have always...

Thanks for the compliment! My husband and I have tossed this idea around for the last six months and we made a list of the pro's and con's of owning more than one truck. Yes, it would be nice to own multiple trucks but our biggest fear was finding reliable drivers that would take care of our...

We also use TAB for our fueling. When we first started in the business, we would try and bring enough cash to last us for at least a month (we know, it is stupid to carry that amount of cash) but we hated to pay the bank charges at the ATM's. Then we ran into a couple that has been out here for...

Thanks for the input. We were told the same thing from a fleet owner, to have at least 3 trucks, in case 2 should be in the shop at the same time. Maybe we will just keep saving for awhile and see if things are going to even out a little before jumping into adding on. I hate the thought of...

:-) Glad to know I am not the only one that feels that way!!

Never thought of an electric tea kettle, great idea!! I usually just heat water in the microwave but I think I will have to invest in the tea kettle. We do most of our cooking a crock pot. It is amazing what you can do in one of those. I can even hard boil eggs in it!! Arlene
