    I’ve been with Mercer for 3 years now and still like it. Rates are down but that’s everywhere. Still paying my bills and keeping moving so no complaints here

    Check out Supertruckerdan on You tube. He's been with Mercer for years and seems to be as busy as he wants to.

    I pull a 48’ flat

    I’m averaging 1.68 all miles right now but remember that’s our 75% cut. Not what i was making my first 2 years but I’m happy and more importantly Mercer is really easy to deal with. I book my loads off the load board by checking a few boxes, pickup and deliver, then I’m paid the next day. Doesn’t get any easier. Now i did have to expand my preferences here lately which means no more avoiding heavy loads or tarps and may have to deadhead a bit more but i feel like things will pickup here again eventually or at leas it hope, lol
