    You see anything different 100 200 difference between brokers is all it is. Do you even use a load board or are you leased on and some dispatcher GIVES you a load???

    Dude no one cares what you drive , how much you grossed , trailers , tires ...lower the costs - better .
    2000 freightliner with 2000 trailer delivers the load as well as 2021 volvo with 2021 trailer.
    Doesn't matter what you grossed - only whats left after expenses . Someone who grossed 3500 could have more money left in his pocket than you

    This is getting ridiculous. You’re the one that doesn’t know how to read.

    .35 a mile. Your assumptions are the root of your business failures.

    And I can tell you this; I’m gonna make an assumption of my own by your brag on your weekly gross: my weekly net from my gross would make your head spin.

    Call uncle Sam, I'm sure he will handle things for you and maybe regulate your income.
    Its a free market and if you can't compete dont come on here crying .

    It's not a free market. Don't pretend to have an economics degree, can you even define "free market" the brokers have the free market competing for the customer. You are just the horse they use

    Uncle Sam did his part!! Made the brokers show the money, broker created a loop hole by creating a waiver. Go get an education in the bussiness you claim to be in

    I wish some of the brokers on the forum would chime in. But I have seen it said here before that if a broker is able to make a killing off some companies loads, sooner or later another broker is going to steal that freight. And that is what happens on their end.

    Isn't he a business man running a business as well? Brokers aren’t charities nor are you.

    Right, and if the general contractor doesn't want to pay that then the sub doesn't get the job. If you went to all the work of getting your own customers would you tell the owner ops you hire exactly what it'll take to undercut you?
