Thanks Cherie for the comment. I have not seen you name before I believe. Quite a per mile change 60 cents. I'm a retired truck driver, 43 cents a mile is the most I got in my time. I go a kick out of your poem about trucking. And thoes road kills mighty tasty when your miles are low. "Just joking. Agape, Moses
