3,100 miles divided by 5mpg is 620 gallons...at 5.5mpg is still 563 gallons and that 5.5 is about all a loaded truck is going to get. 563 gallons at $5.75/gallon, more the national average, is $3,237. You can bet they aren't going to roll with less than a truckload.
For any trucking company to figure a firm quote even a week from now is a big gamble.
At this rate, there may be a few less long distance cars at MCACN in November.
