    HaHa. OK I won't spill the beans but this is pretty good. I'll have to keep this close to heart for at least a few months. Those planes are pretty good too.

    And for the record, Spyder calling me and threatening my with physical bodily harm may or may not be the reason I'm staying quiet.

    Just saying.....

    How much do you think we miss out on by not being able to use ITS and book our own loads? With a higher % to us.

    Talk to guys with their own numbers and they'll tell you we're not missing much. Those public load boards are used for loads that nobody wants kinda like our board. The best paying freight never hits the board kinda like our best paying freight rarely sees the mercer public board

    That's either old, or a really recent change. They've been taking guys with no flay experience for the last 7 or 8 years that i know of, and last time i was in louisville(about a month ago) there were new recruits with no flat experience.

    Update: OOOPS, this response from a 2012 inquiry... Nevermind my response, really should look at dates. Frankly I wish they would put the newest post to the front of the blog.
    2 ideas:
    1- install boxes on trailer and only have a headache rack plate not a box with open window with bars for the condensor air flow.
    2- Move your apu to the side just behind your fuel tank, and get a headache rack with the grill for air to the condensor.

    I am confused with this, several guys here said you can book ahead. Maybe they won't let newbie book ahead until they know how reliable you are.... ?

    A little late to the party. Check the date on the post you're responding to.
