We jacked up our trip charges when it hit $1.60......now it's time to add
another $5.00 to the trip and maybe round out our $12.00 return trip fee to
maybe.....$15??

At $3.00 a gallon.....16 city/20 hwy.....that's 20 cents per mile/15 cents
per mile.....a South Bend 90 mile trip is $13.50 (our cost) one way
...$27.00 round trip and $54.00 for pickup and deliver! (And we presently
charge 75.00 trip/12.00 return , or $87.00 total....we charged that when it
cost us $27.00 @ $1.60)
