    One of our estimators didn't show up for work this week so we've been scrambling to go through all 17 of his job files as well as handle the people he wrote estimates for coming back in and get everything in ship shape. Been a busy few days.

    You could also print a flyer and laminate it and stick it on your truck so people who see you see the for sale flyer.

    Depends on your speed, road conditions, and the wind direction. Best I’ve gotten has been 22 (dc, v6, auto, stockish tires), but as long as I keep it to about 70, 20 mpg is about avg.

    You don’t count. 10 is good when you are driving on one flat tire. :boink:

    Visiting my wife's parents/family for the holidays.

    It's always nice to find time to see some of the crew.

    Just tough sometimes, but hope to make it happen!

    holidays in HTX will probably be nice. enjoy the time with family and friends. fingers crossed for not a lot of traffic for you on your journey. Thats the worst part about travelling during hte holidays IMO.
