    Well here in New England you can not. Not calling anybody a liar but i bin doing this for over 22 years and have never seen a regular non oversized flat load leave this are for that high of a rate and i no alot of the shippers up here. Not saying it did not happen but hard to believe unless it was something speacial.

    Good for you i go out for $575 come back for $650 in a 12 hour day for a total of $1,225.00 a day or $2.40 all miles and get to be at home every day. To me still better than your 900 mile day and a half run anyday at $2 a mile or even $2.50 a mile. You guys want to brag about your big money out of here go elsewhere i did not start this thread to here the BS.

    OK let's at least get the facts straight, then you can laugh! The flats start at .26 for the first three mos.

    God that is pitiful. That would have been the going rate back in 1992.

    Swift gets a jab here too? OK let's say it was Swift. It says "they are not showing up," does that sound like Swift? 228 miles- assuming we sent a driver with only one years exp. they would pay .44/mi.
    Also: Swift is not spelled "switf" and that driver needs to learn when to use "there" "they're" and "their."
    Just sayin'

    While this is a true statement, these are likely the same people whom ask the ESL people to "learn english"
