    That's the great thing about being an O/O. I can always tell a cheap *$$ broker to pound sand, there's always a better load to be found....

    That seems to be all thats left in CA. The most profitable run has always been going north and south in CA, two round trips a week. That seems to be fading.Try conatcting Hanson and Atkins/Harbor out of Los Alamitos. The have the Mercedes contract out of carson. Thing that was working for me was running north out of there then grabbing a Foed or nissian load out of the bay going to Fresno

    Nope, I was not with Excel.
    I was a T/M with Hadley Auto Transport (then PTS) for many years. Up until 2007, I got out right before it was rained dry

    It was a great family owned company to work for until Bill Hadley passed away. Shortly after, the company was acquired by a large holding company which started the beginning of the end.
