I would like a company that won't run me to death ... something where I can plan a little on which direction I'm going. I can go with Panther but their loads are sent via comdata based on your location. I would like to see the loads available and have a say as to what direction I want to head. My insurance issues are a result of recent TT experience.

I would say to try Lonestar and you can choos your own loads. Also,check with OOIDA and your state trucking agencies for insurance.

Just becasue its "legal" doesn't mean it's safe! I know when I need to sleep and when I am safe to drive. Fight the HOS. Write your Congressman.

There is no such thing as a "BACK-HAUL" everything has a start and stop point, If it needs to be moved then it is a load, period. Insurance, tires, fuel,etc... aren't any cheaper heading towards your home than they are going away. BACKHAUL is BS.
