holy shi#t lol :P, yeah thats almost dead on with my numbers.

by chance rawze, did you hack my computer? LOL! j.k.

well, last year for 2019 my maint was pretty hefty..... I'm pretty on top of the maint department, found couple of good volvo mechanics so my truck hasn't seen the inside of the garage of volvo dealership, hoping to keep it that way and knock on wood.

with this current company, i can change the liability for my truck since i got it at 25k. i might as well change it to 16k for what i got it. looking for something else with steady pay/freight in the midwest here.

$750/1800 = $0.41/mile
$565/7200 = $.08/mile
Maint. & deductible costs. = ~$0.14/mile (assuming your conservative but not jumping over dollars to save dimes)
fuel = $0.45/mile
================
minimum gross to break even = $1.52/mile.
Minimum gross to make a half-decent paycheck = ~$2.26/mile

Ballpark~ish any ways.
