There seems to be quite a bit of confusion over the trucking bill to haul No. 3 to Penfield.  To clarify things, here are the charges:
$789.81 - This bill was from Palmer Leasing to rent a self-containted detachable trailer from July 8-10 which traveled 488 miles.  Schaefer Trucking does not have access to a trailer of this type, so one had to be rented.  This is the actual cost paid to Palmer.

$488 - This is for the 588 miles traveled for this trip which amounts to 83 cents per mile.  (Leave Greenville, go to St. Louis for trailer, back to Greenville to pick up No. 3, go to Penfield, back to St. Louis to return trailer then back to Greenville.)

$204 - This is the amount paid to the truck driver that made the trip of 588 miles at a rate of 34.7 cents per mile.  

Total amount paid directly to Schaefer Trucking for 588 miles - $692 or $1.17 per running mile.
