Curiously enough, I was pocketing the most money off the fuel surcharge at the time when fuel was the most expensive. So, with a vehicle with good fuel economy, the higher the fuel goes, the more money I keep. Lol.

I'm with you, OVM. Whith my 04 Sprinter, when I was leased to companies that were paying fuel surcharge (Landstar, FedEx), there was NO time that I wasn't making money on it. In other words, I always got more money from the fuel surcharge than I used to buy fuel. Always.

Or an espar.

I'm surprised the second trailer didn't flip over.

$1.919 a gallon of diesel at Buc-ee's in Baytown, TX. 2 exits west at the Flying J, Love's and TA it was $2.999. So, how many half showers can I buy with the money I saved? Hmmmm, too complicated.

Cha ching. TX to FL. I love keeping it low this time of the year, below I-20. Thinking about it, I've only been about 30 miles north of I-40 this year. One more month of this and I'll be okay. :>)

Wow. I both delivered to and picked up from residential customers, but it was nowhere near as you describe.

I filled up at Buc ee's in New Braunfels on my way out. $2.20 a gallon of diesel. Cheapest I've seen this year. Boy, they have like 100 pumps. I wanted to count them but i got tired of counting.

Boo, missed you again. Left Laredo this afternoon, detoured to Eagle Pass on the way to Missippippi. This time I wanted to stay in Laredo a few days, but darn dispatch got me out in less than 24 hours. Don't they ever sleep, or play solitaire or something instead of looking for loads? [emoji12]...

Ken, I'll pass through sa this evening. If you will still be there, I'd like to finally meet you. Pm me your number if you don't mind.

Some 25 years ago one summer night i was walking home from my aunt's house when all of a sudden i hear this deep growling sound. Too dark to see anything, not a bear since they don't live around there, probably just a huge dog. I didn't hang around to investigate, just started running. And i ran...

Laredo????

I feel the same way, Bill. Been off for so long, van is packed, ready to go, but I dread the time when I have to leave. I got used to sleeping in a real bed.

4 allignments in a year? I had none in almost 10 years and almost 700k miles.

Happy New Year, everyone. Hope everyone has a safe and prosperous 2015. The fun is over, time to get back to work.

With my 650 miles range i can usually fly over PA without fueling. Can't even remember last time i fueled there. I guess in the future if i need to fuel there it will only be a few gallons to get me out of there.

Stay off of load boards. Enjoy your time off. You'll get to do it all soon enough.[emoji109]

What does the Owner's Manual say?

Which one do you have? 3.7 or 3.5 ecoboost?
