I'm into Supermoto right now. Best of both worlds.
I used to move like the wind, Now I also drive a truck! LOL -
I worked as an o/o for Landstar for 3 years.If you pull a van like I did I promise you that over 80% of all their van freight is double brokered from another broker or logistics company. any time you call an agent for a posted load and he says "let me see if its still available" its third party freight. In the 12 monts prior to me leaving I grossed approx $240,000 to them and my cut was $180,000. believe me,you can get authority,and all insurance for around $12,000 and put the rest where it belongs,in your pocket. They used to be a good company but I wouldn't go back and I don't think you should hire on.

$240,000 pulling a Van is great. But you're are right about that being a thing of the past.
$240,000 pulling a Flatbed is tough over the past year and it looks like that is even going to go down for this year. At least that's the way it looks right now.
I think that they have found the minimum rates for freight for O/O's and they are taking advantage of that this winter for sure. -

That user hasnt even posted on the forums since 2011 and the post you quoted was from 2008.
