DAT 360- get loaded and any other crap wont come close to the dat board. It is expensive, 299.99/month. run the live mode and you can be well on your way to a decent load. And as to someone mentioning about staying away from CHR... umm they are the biggest and the "best" among the other sharks. 1.5% for 24 hr quick pay, fuel advance, and transflow!! The hardest part for you is going to be able to figure out which lanes to run. I run nj-ca with my equipment but am leased to a company that I have no complaints about.
Best of luck to you!
Ok, get ready to pummel the new guy..

It may be years before the chemicals used in the fracking process leach into the aquifers that well water is drawn from.I would get my water tested on a regular basis,they can only reclaim a small portion of the chemicals they put in the drill hole,the rest are left to leach into the ground.

Dry Van. (99 trailmobile air ride.) Figured it would work for a starter.

Whats working for me is , i hooked up with a dispatch service that charges $350 mo. I was doing the power only thing, but that didn't work out. So, i bought me a 1996 trl and hit the road. I'm doing a lot better on my own. I know alot of people would tell you dispatch service don't work. To be honest its working for me, i don't have to worry about the rate, because they know what i will and will not take. I singed no contract , just month to month. Just another thought.

Mail box has been overflowing with Companies, Brokers, etc. Got something from C2C Capitol that is kinda interesting concerning factoring. I looked into all the load board suggestions, (Thanks all) Slowly narrowing down what I am going to try. still have over a month before it all comes together. That is if I dont have a brain hemorage trying to put the business plan together. till then, just got to keep the tanker away from the ditches and flashing lights. Cant seem to get away from the dozers that have to yank me up the lease roads though. Winter was bad, Spring will be murder.

How Ironic, I post about flashing lights and what do I get today, a level 1. The cop even had the cahonies to tell me that I was the 3rd oil field tanker pulled over today and that they were doing 10. Almost made it....
leaking diaphram on 5th axle pass side cylinder. 4 hour wait for our mech to fix in a flat. Citation to the company... Man I got to get out of this oil field business fast....

Yeah, many that I have worked with cut the check on day 29. Be prepared to play games - didn't get BOL, you are told they will take it via fax then "oh, no, we need originals." About 20% play these games. I only factor with companies that will do it for 1.5% and direct deposit. Any more than that and it is not paying for itself.Greenacres0802 Thanks this.

This is very true......
