    I've been running my prefered lane the last two months and could keep three trucks profitable with the calls I'm getting. Part of that is running outside Malone's "box". There's good paying freight outside that box that doesn't require throwing tarps twice a day to make revenue.

    I am making the move back to Malone with my truck early next month. Just need to find my lanes out of Iowa and keep the left door shut.

    5 years. CRST management sucks. Communication is very poor. But mostly they leave me alone so I don't worry about it.

    I think people miss the point. They do not own you, you are running under their authority, that is all. Take advantage of them, abuse the privilege of it. Build a solid customer base and take care of your customers. We work for the customer, not the carrier. I don't know why that is so hard for people to understand.
