    I find my loads to be consisting of small time stuff like tvs, mattresses, coach parts and appliances from apartments. whats my best bet to bring in 50 dollars daily?



    There is a whole horizon i am missing as of lately... other yards look better and have better rates... but they are farther from home...
    Nice truck. I had a 78 camper special. Would haul a house like it wasn't there. Also drank gas like no ones business. Not trying to be smart when I say this but if you want to maximize anything, start with your hauling rig. You need a more economical truck to haul with. Do you really need that rig? Can you get away with a smaller rig? Your current truck probably gets 7-10 mpg at best with a tail wind and down hill. Maybe it even has to use high test gas like mine did. Getting something in the 12-15 mpg range is going to put money in your pocket long term and consistantly. There is an upfront cost of course but your killing your profits running that truck.

    I loved mine and wish I still had it. Was a great truck. Just not practical is today's gas price enviroment. If at all possible, change that part of your operation.
