Conex/Storage Containers

[davido]

The reason I said $1,000 is because the difference in what those Miami ones cost ($1,700) vs. what I'm seeing them for sale ($2,900).

I talked to Eric at Metro. Delivery from Brenham is only $250, so that's not bad at all. But the containers are not as low as I'd like:

20' $2,150 spot primed ($2,000 as is)
40' $3,150 spot primed ($2,950 as is)

It's AN option though.

College Station - Miami - College Station = ~2600 miles round trip

Average 8mpg (10 empty, 6 loaded) @ $3.30/gallon

325 gallons / $1072.50 cost.

I don't know that you could get your mpg up much from that loaded #, but you might do a bit better on the 'empty' stretch of it.

6/14mpg = $858.00

14 would be REALLY pushing it with my heavy ass trailer.

Close to 43 hours of driving also, but would be a hellufa trip!!!

Just made that trip. Not interested.

I'm not even interested in driving to Dallas for the weekend, another Miami trip is definitely out. I did email him to see if there was someone that he knew in Houston that I could get them from. I just need to dig deeper and get setup to buy them direct.
