    I use my laptop 99% of the time.. functionality of searching and opening multiple windows of the load board for me works better on laptop.

    In the southern Middle part out in the sticks, my last stop is tomorrow morning and I'm still not booked.
    Too close to the Oklahoma/Texas black hole, I can feel the suction but I shall resist! :ogre:


    In normal circumstances yes but this load paid a lot.. highest paying load to Kansas I ever saw. Plus I needed a break from doing the same thing endlessly.
    Soooo if everything still sucks in the morning I'll probably deadhead 230 miles or so to the Kansas city area and then get myself back in my normal zones.

    I have given up on following unconfirmed loads or setting load alerts on high paying loads.
    Playing that game will cause you to require antipsychotic and antidepression meds.

    There's endless people that favorite those high paying unconfirmed loads along with having load alerts set up for high $ loads.
    All the while Honey boo boo is camping on the board refreshing it every millisecond to get super trucker daddy that hot load before you can blink an eye!

    I never booked a load from phone or iPad. I like too open up diffrent screens. Marquest, Google earth, accu weather. I look at all these things before I book a a load. I know guys who will book a load, then figure it out when they get there. There is no wrong or right way to book a load.
