    When you call a broker that posted a load on Get Loaded, 360, Internet Truck Stop, what are the questions you ALWAYS ask before you start negotiating/accept the load. Is there a pretty standard list you go through or does it vary from person to person? What specific load information do you need to know to evaluate if the price is right?
