How much do you haul?
I hauled about 300,000 pounds worth in the last 2 years, but I can't find much with prices so high. All the people I was getting it from are selling it themselves.

Worst part is most of what I hualed was when prices were $1-5.5 per 100 pounds.
After it hit $6/100 I lost the place I was getting 75% of it from.

I have 3 places to clean up and one more I need to talk to the owner of, then I have nothing to haul at all.

So what have y'all been up to?

They started the slab today, I can't wait!
I found a supercharger for my CVPI for $300 and was going to buy it when I found out it will not fit.

Well for one, I got my driver's license. I also went and had a Flowmaster 40 Series put on my truck. Totally different sound! What surprised me is that it's actually not that loud, yet upon acceleration I can hear it pretty good. One of the best parts is the much-reduced interior sound levels. I can actually talk normally while driving now. :P And it seems to have made a difference in power, too. Picks right up and goes without a problem, and it accelerates what I think is much quicker than it used to.

I also re-aimed my headlights, since they were way off from where they should be. Five minutes and now I can see much better with the low beams. I want to get some more Silverstars at some point.

I love the flowmaster 40 under my truck. Seems like the perfect balance between a little sound, and great flow. Since I'm running a 300, I used single 2.25 all the out behind the rear tire.

I also have the 40 Series, a little quiet but sounds real good when you get on it.
