Diesel fuel prices
« on: Today at 12:28:56 PM »
As a trainer who recently moved up to New York State we tend to race horses where the money is good that means we ship all over.

Here's the problem diesel fuel!!   Do I pass this increase on to the owners? It's costing a fortune to fuel my truck you don't wanna know what it cost me to ship from New York State to Ohio.

You wouldn't mind if the purses increased along with the fuel prices or they would pay show up money. Something's got to give.

What does welfare have to do with the price of diesel fuel?

If diesel fuel is costing a "Fortune" this trainer sucks assholes and is not making money, neither are his owners  ngc3

Let's say asshole baa boo drives 52,000 miles a year, 1000 a week.  Ten miles a gallon, 100 gallons x 3 more = $300 x 52 weeks = $15,000.

Sure charge the owners it's an increased expense out of your control but if $15,000 is getting you nuts you're a broke ass bitch and shitty trainer  ngc3

Go suck Ronnie's cock, last concern on his mind other than being the life and death of racing is - fuel  ;D

Do all trainers use diesel fuel when they ship horses?

It’s the cost of owning horses. Owners aren’t happy about riding bills, but it is what it is!  Get used to it.

I’ve see trainers have trucks that don’t run on diesel. So the bills should go up but not as much as diesel.   

Not there yet for oatmeal for brains but others are closer than I am.  11.wp 73cv.2

While I understand the high cost of all fuel, I think adding what amount to a fuel "surcharge" to your bill for shipping is "Chintzy". When fuel drops, as it always does, will you lower your shipping costs to reflect those lower prices?

Some can read and comprehend better than others here.

Some are more fun in their descriptions here.

I like bananas and oatmeal, but not coconut.   11.wp
