I traded between a rich industrial and poor agricultural using a OOHaul to buy my super cobra it was only 15000cr more than the Cobra Mk3 and has a 150 ton cargo bay.

On the other hand no weapons other than an energy bomb no fuel scoop so I had to run away a lot :lol:

You can also make money by shooting the cargo boxes on a OOHaul for computers.

Thank you again everyone for all the good advice.
I've installed the rusty ships oxp, we shall see what pops up on the market!
I've been doing some bounty hunting and scooping, going to do some more.
And thank you VERY much for the advice about the low tonnage contracts. I didn't realize they were ever available. I'll be checking each time I dock now.

And TODAY's most frustrating experience award goes to:
Just now, after several days and hours and hours of playing, figuring out what Shift-D does. <sigh> :)

You may often find space debris and flotsum in the space lanes left over from a conflagration, and it's also worth having a quick check on your scanner when you arrive at the Corriolis, to see if there are any more random white dots about, these might be escape capsules with a potential insurance payout of up to 500cr.
