    There is broker in FB group right now, looking for a SC-AK team run, looks like his customer is desperate and willing to pay 40k plus. Would you?

    For 40k. Absolutely. I'd even deal with the bs border crossing drama for that. Something is obviously up with this load tho for him to be paying double market rate. Is it od? 50 extra stops? Unmarked hazmat? Drugs hidden inside?

    1 and 1, 20ft of space. Says customer is loosing 30k per hour and all the cargo planes are already booked and they have no other option as to put it on a truck

    Assuming it's going to a place in Alaska you can actually drive to, it's a phenomenally good rate. So good that i have my doubts that its a real load and once you commit to it you will never get a rate con.

    He started with 18k, but people kept saying it should pay over 40, so he is willing to take that to the customer in AM. I dont know, maybe somebody will get it

    There's a reason I don't trust (most, almost all) people - my own siblings lie to me if: a) they think I'll be impressed or b) they want to hide their shame.

    I'm just putting that one out there. Interpret it however you may see fit.
     
    Shock Therapy and spyder7723 Thank this.
