Ive got a 96 KW I will sell you and a 1979 C-65 Chevrolet with a flatbed.No trailers though.You can figure your fuel on the KW like this,every dollar per gallon the cost of fuel it takes 20 cents a mile for it,just slightly more.So unless you shut it off at every stop,and if you shut it off when you sleep,you should figure a dollar a mile for fuel.A thousand miles,thousand dollars just for fuel.Its probly going to cost you 30,000.00 for the truck and trailer,then You would be on your own from there,license,insurance,fuel taxes,taxes,so to be fair its really about 2.20 per mile with 4.00 fuel.If you dont drive it,you would have to pay somebody 35 to 40 cents a mile to drive it.So you would need a real sharp pencil to figure how you could do it for 2.00 a mile,maybe if you drive it yourself you could do that.Tires are 400 dollars each,and oil goes up all the time.You need to change the oil every 5 loads,That will cost you 200 each time and you need to grease it every 5000 miles. The only smart thing to do is get a backhaul,that means you need authority,and lots of other stuff,maybe even have to hire out your paperwork especially the log books.If you had a steady backhaul would cut the expenses down,but not as much as you might think.Actually hauling only one way and you still will be pulling fuel money out of your pocket. You dont want to tear up any tires,and dont want to spend any more than you have to on the road,and you could maybe get it all hauled for 50,000 dollars and still have a truck to sell when you get done.Trucks and trailers can be bought maybe in the 25,000.00 range that would work,maybe a little less but you would probly not have good tires,irritating mechanical problems,and maybe not get 25,000.00 when you get done.You might not be able to even sell a truck with the high fuel untill the atmosphere changes about trucking.Thinking some more.I think it would be closer to 60,000 dollars to do all that,and maybe not get it done for that.

Today's Featured Article - Sunday Drives - by Cowboy. Summer was finally upon us here in Northern Maine. We have two types of industry up here, one being "Forestry" (Wood Products) and the other "Farming" (Potatoes). There is no shortage of farm tractors and equipment around here! I have been restoring old Farm Tractors for the past 6 years, and have found it easier and less expensive to hit all the auctions and purchase whole tractors for parts needed.
