Current rates are now below fleet operating costs! It's official!

Produce! Produce! Not easy one pic one drop for a broker but produce for a choosy customer. And some Ice Cream! Yum! Takes care and professionalism. Driving is only part of the job. A job were errors are not tolerated.

 

Correct -- the discipline, focus and work ethic that is required/produced by serving in the armed forces quite often will evolve a person into someone who will later make for an excellent truck driver.

THANK YOU -- for your service to our Great Country !!!

That'll certainly put things in perspective, thanks for your service!

 

Barn just called, 37 pallet, 8 stop over flow load going to Seattle, paying about 15k, took me a minute because I’ve always wanted to go to the other coast, but said to myself that’s the easy part, how do I get back, , best sticking to what I know

 

Vacation load. Haul air back, stop and rent a car to drive around Yellowstone.

 

Sounds like easy money and it doesn't really matter whatever coming back east pays.

 

I got $3.44 last week. Columbus Ga. to Philly. Guy wanted to pay $2800, then $3000. I stuck at $3200. Best load I’ve had in a long time. Almost got stuck for the weekend. Needed to get home. Deadhead down to Richmond Va. for a load home. 17 days out. Those last few days were tough. Not used to being out that long. I don’t see how some do it. Gone for months sometimes. No life outside Trucking. #### That

 

Not even $1 pm. What a joke. Beer at that. Water loads from that area paid about $1.20 pm 17 yrs ago.

 

Over by your area. I would consider doing it. Not to hard to get back if you pay attention to what you are doing. fun drive this time of year as well and get you out of the smoke.

 

Yes, my business plan is to operate on a load board and nothing else. I value my freedom.

Load boards are not scraps if you know how to read them. An enormous amount of loads go on them every single day.

You're a kind of specialized service, I'm a regular dry van guy, nothing common between us.

My equipment doesn't worth more than 60K, so my insurance is about $400 per month.

Besides my freedom, I like to take it easy.
Not the case with you.

Thank you for your service!
