    Already done Spyder. I've been checking out a couple of the big boards for awhile now. Costs me 90 cents/mile to roll. I'm not worried about not making a profit.

    If only we could all be as smart as you, yet you're the one that's stuck and can't leave. What I've said all along is you can make money here, and I don't really have a problem with the program at all. It's as easy as it gets. The deal breaker for me is the babysitting and micromanaging. They don't make you feel like an owner operator here.

    wow, man......I don't think Schneider would touch it, but I'm glad I didn't jump to Celedon. Just wow......Schneider is waiting for them to go belly up, and according to this, it won't be long. Man, I mean, man, who would have thought? Nice find Tech.

    again, holy cow.......to MPX, Quality Leasing is part of Celedon, and according to what I understand, a big part of the problem.
    Trucking is a fickle industry......looks like Celedon bought big when the freight was good, and lost on that bet. My business plan surpasses all of the smart people: Do good when times are good, do ok when times are bad. So far, it's working.

    I agree. Making money was never the issue there it was all the other BS that went along with it...and it was a lot of BS.

    As far as predictions go...who cares if you were right if you are still running under their numbers...the smart ones got out and went to greener pastures..
