At Landstar you better get in good with an agent if your going to survive bottom line.....I saw first hand how the game is played there and you #### straight better know someone..Landstar will tell the agents don't play favorites and they have to offer you alll available freight thats total ########.. -

Not sure what Landstar is paying per mile i did a couple of jobs for them a few years ago. i had a friend/customer call me two weeks age to see if i could make a run down to Baltimore from Boston, 400 miles Landstar wanted $2000.00 that comes out to $5.00 bucks a mile. What will they give the O O 1.50 - 2.00 someone is making money.
