    Reason why you don’t use them much is because they don’t have much good paying freight. If you had their load board you’d see how bad their rates are. I also hauled “good paying freight” for convoy, but that was very rare.

    I found in some areas they paid pretty good. In my area they did not have much freight but did pay good when oddball stuff popped up.
    This was the last one I did for them and was not that bad. About 1450 miles and was 19K on the weight.

    Guy I’m talking about has his own authority and runs local. I’m not sure what their arrangement is.

    They ( Convoy) had a big trailer rental program so I am gonna guess that will be a big mess. Bet money a lot of the people try and keep them some how or buy them for pennies since they will have a hard time gathering them all.
