Taking my trucks to JB Hunt!

i only want to.......

wish you good luck

 

is this running your authority with their trailer, or leasing on to them?

 

due to previous post on this forum I can only say............you'll be sorry. However, I do wish you success.

 

none of them can afford computers anymore

 

I can only speak from my experience with them. They will tell you about all the loads they have and how you'll run steady. I put one truck on with them and in just short of three weeks got a total of 2400 miles including deadhead, with not quite 1900 in revenue. You do the math. Once I got the truck within 200 miles I had the driver deadhead back. There was NEVER a load planned for the next dispatch, always wait a day or two, deadhead 300-400 miles to pick up a load going another 300 miles and delivering in two days.

 

i hear that USA Trucks has a decent o/o plan. i talked to jb hunt about a dedicated route on the east coast,but it didn't work out.

 

You know I have heard mixed stories on this. A guy that lives near me had 2 trucks and put both of them on with JB. running under his authority, pulling their trailers. He has since bought another truck and put it on the same deal.

He claims they are getting 2500 + miles per week, averaging 1.30 per mile for all miles. He seems to be happy with that.

You know how stories go.
