Ran across this today on the Dallas/Ft Worth Craigslist site:

210 miles for $200 comes out to about .95 - .96 cents a mile. That's just one way if you live in either the Hope area or the DFW area.

And, I'll tell you this. Those trailers have been sitting there in Hope going on over 4 years now. Possible tire rot causing numerous flats, the wheel bearings probably have not been greased since they were parked, window seals might be dried out causing windows to fall off while going down road (trust me, I know, have had it happen while I was driving for FEMA itself) and so on.

So, if you're desperate for money and want a little "RV Hauling" experience, give it a try. Me, personally, wouldn't get involved in this, period.

If you had a haul and tow you could clean up though Brisco. Two trips a day. 800 bucks a day for 800 miles. Give a kid 100 bucks a day to prep the trailers for you..

Even if you could do 8 trips a week youd be 3200 bucks for 3200 miles.

Thats the only way Id do it.

Nope these would all be 30 footers so you'd never get 2 on.
