Well as many of you know I am a new O/O. Believe it or not things have been going pretty darn good!! Out of the blue I made a cold call on a load I honestly had no intrest in running nor was it to where I would normally go. Come to find out the rate was pretty decent and the load goes twice a week 52 weeks a year!!!!! I run a lot of hours and miles,BUT I don't sit around and wait, and the customer has me loaded and unloaded in 30 minutes. They are always happy to see me as well!! I truly hope this lasts for a while as I could for sure use the capital. The loads coming back are usually cheap in my opinion but it is was it is. Welcome to Norfolk,Va. LOL.

As long as your making money and happy with it roll with it

I stole some of the guys advice up here and only run 3 or 4 states now and have done ALOT better then when I chased rates all over, I'm hoping for the day I find something like you did
Logtruck08 Thanks this. -
Don't holler too loudly or someone else will try to steal your thunder... Glad its working out for you.

Me too. I put a limit on running primarily the Upper Midwest back in '99, and have done far better than I did running all over the nation. More consistent. -
Not only more consistent, if nothing is worth moving I'm usually no more then 500 to 600 miles from home
