I run with the Reefer most the time, has the most cargo types avaiable. Can do all generla good plus chilled/frozen food.

I found a load of ADR Class 4 chemicals going from New Mexico to Oregon for $232,000. My avergae load price is $130,000 - $155,000 with that trailer doing long hauls.

put trailers in yur garage with drivers an theyll use them too. mo mony.
theres a an insulated trailer can haul chilled food, but for frozen youll need the reefer one.
and you can make double an triple trailers in the truck shop when customizing them.

hes saying 232thousand dollars. 232,000. 2hundred and 32thousand.
the comma is like the decimal point for the amount and the 3 zeros tell you its thousands.

10= ten.
100= one hundred.
1000= one thousand.
1100= eleven hundred, or one thousand one hundred.
100,000= one hundred thousand.
150,000= one hundred and fifty thousand.
232,000= two hundred and thirty two thousand.

(0) one zero= tens. 10.00 ten dollars
(00) two zeros= hundreds. 100.00 a hundred dollars
(000) three zeros= thousands. 1000.00 a thousand dollars

No need to explain to me how the money systems works in the United States, I was born here. I saw what he wrote as $232.00 which is, 2 hundred, 32 dollars and zero cents. You're replying to somene that has paid bills by check for over 60 years.

Hauling a load of cars from LA to Portland is silly if it pays 220.000... That would be pure BS... One would never get paid that amount in R/L...You might if you are real luck get a whopping 5000.00 for that load...

Agreed..... That's why I like using a real economy mod. At least that way it feels like a challenge

You can only buy doubles and triples if you have garages in the appropriate States.

My impression so far : reefer allows the most in number of offered job, but drybox jobs will be offered at less weight and less reward per mile, as a drybox will load 3500 pounds more (tare weight difference, reefer being an heavier trailer than a drybox from the thicker insulated walls). The occurance of a frozen/chilled load (tbh, no reason to use insulated at all, as the reduction in reward for a drybox load is the same as reefer, with no frozen load offered) so far does not look like that ONE load you'll get out of somewhere that was the best paying and is be frozen, will compensate the loss of all the drybox loads you'll be paid less for you'll probably end up carrying.

One common comment I saw on forum researching this before making my own tests, was how people with reefer most commonly hauled dry goods with them still, as frozen/chilled loads were not very common (or not the best paid in a given town, even with the lesser reward).

I hope eventually axle count will start mattering, and having a 3 axle reefer will be the best jack of all trade, while 3-4 axle drybox remain the only choice for specific loads, but is not as much the king of the game. This will require game to offer various loads, and not just a bunch of loads tailored to your trailer max capacity tough.
