    They will list cars for 150.00 and then they tack on 100.00 for their "Services"! LOL! I deal with it the first time then give the customer my info to call direct after.

    rates fall down last few years and every year i think is bottom,but not. i lost to many customers,because they said my service too expensive,why have paid more when another drivers do a lot cheaper :biggrin_2553:

    In my days as a small fleet owner, 8 trucks,11 trailers, I have had customers of long term stop using me because someone else would do it for a penny a mile less than my contract rate. Some of these customers were 5 year and older contracts with zero claims, 100% on time delivery in addition to bending over backwards and doing extra things I didnt charge for!!!! The average savings to them was $10.00 per run!!!!!! Amazing!!!! But in this day and time there is no loyalty,it is all about money!!!!

    So don't move them at a rate that has never changed in 5 years ? Ok that makes sense.

    Like mentioned above, not if you're going more than 50-75 miles. I'd rather stay at home, wash my truck and not make any money than work my ### off to LOSE money.
     
    281ric, Tobytob, sxdime and 1 other person Thank this.
