Yes, professionals will charge around $2.00/mi., but that's a bit salty for some folks. What you want to charge will depend on how well you know this person, or if it's just some guy.

120 miles roundtrip at say, 12 miles/gal., you'll be spending roughly $25-$30. He'll know this too and may not consider your time and slight overhead for a pretty short trip, but it all adds up, tires, oil changes, etc. 10 big bales, that's a good load, (for your "new" 1 ton Ford wasn't it?).
A buck a mile, (loaded), would be a very fair deal for him, and twice what you will spend in fuel. You could then add $20 or so for your time and incidentals if you wanted to, or just go $1.25 or $1.50. The more important factors are, IMHO, the future buisness aspect.
