.....57PkUp....I don't persume anything....it's a fact of life -you never get to your goals if you are waiting for your ship to come in[luck-lottery-death of a realtive-finding a diamond in your back yard].....You have to set reasonable goals and work day and nite to obtain them-once there-....then start the process all over. A one year plan and then another one year plan and then maybe a 3 year plan and then another 3 year plan.....This is the same way an investment advisor starts your accumulation of wealth with a short term plan and each time it is met-adding a longer term plan with a higher goals....[I'll talk about risk at another time].......following sucessful peoples tactics is a good way of reaching your goals......'course the village idiot will give you advice at the carwash on investing your money.....and some listen to them!.....geofkaye

Here is my 2.5 cents worth on the Tranporting/Towing of all the differant type trailers. 90% of those poor guys are leased
or commited to a Broker or Trucking Company (that does NOT own any Trucks) That has the proper authority to haul,move,transport these trailers across all of or parts of the U.S. These companys (Not the driver or owner of the power unit) are the ones that have contracts with the manufactors of the trailers. They provide cargo insurance for the load the rights to haul it and some other minor stuff. The company recievies a nice payment per mile, per stop, unloading delay time,And also a premieum for Expedite,Redball or Go Fast don't stop get there yesterday service and a Fuel Surcharge. That price now paid by the manufacture to the Broker/Trucking Co. is between $2.75-$3.00 per mile. In turn the poor guy thats doing all the work and has the expenses is getting a maximum of $1.20 per mile and a low of .90 cents per mile. And by the way the manufacture charges back the dealer that the trailer is going to some type of percentage that depends on how many they sell. The truck goes back to Elkhart empty (as in no money) for more of the dry insertion.

Kaye do you ever get tired of listening to yourself? Oh no I can already answer that question, of course you don't.

The only ones who might get tired of listening to themselves would be those who answer their own questions, THEN not deleting the post.....

.....<chuckle>....you always have the right to delete any post you aren't ready to deal with....[I do!] It's still a free country and you do have choices.....whether you use your choice or not is again- your choice!.......try not to get angry-just hit the delete button and you will immediatly feel better!.....[similiar to flushing the toilet-I have been told]....geofkaye

Now..... if only the "delete" option worked on OTHER folks' posts....... NAWWWWWW!

Oh man, suddenly 47% of all posts would just vanish! Hmmm, would that be a bad thing or a good thing? I don't think I'm qualified to answer that conundrum.

Hey Gary & Chevy Pup:

Now Look Here You Two,Leave Kaye Alone I respect
him and we can all learn something from a guy like him. All the stuff that he has done like
Serving the U.S. in S.E. Asia,Being a Doctor,Work with the Rescue/Cadaver Dogs,Being involved with the Prison Work Program,Support for the "THE OHIO SCHOOL FOR TROUBLED & WAYWARD GURLZ" And last but not least,What he has taught us all about the INSULATION FACTORS in a Conversion or Home. Whats up with you Guys from California? We certinly do not need another episode like the one that Nice Mr.Wallik and I had. Wait a second here all three(3)of you guys are from the same STATE. Hey Kaye I think we have a connection here. Maybe there is not three of them and its only one person???

Well, you were the one who made an episode out of a simple remark I had made.

I am sure there are more than 3 guys from CA on here, and I sure hope they are all different people and not one. I would suffer serious multiple personality disorder otherwise.
