    I'm gonna get a good week in this week. But if I get one cancellation on the next 2 loads that will cause it all to crumble. Fingers crossed.

    It says 1-3 inches.
    I normally wouldn't mind but last time I thought I was gonna be okay with just a little bit of snow cars and trucks were sliding off the roads left and right. Multiple pileups in Indiana I drove through, posted the links to those news articles.
    People can't drive man.

    wow!............ another carrier is copying Schneider!

    Check this out




    I'm gonna hit them up to try to find out rates.
    Lets hope I don't get De-Roehled lol.

    I'm always looking around, if I see something better I'm willing to leave.
    So far nothing has come close.

    So how much did today generate for you with those 3 loads? Because you obviously aren't making any money unless you drive 800 miles a day because you can't make money on elogs. Everybody knows that

    It's a great program! A lot of people talk about it. Doesn't or isn't Interstate Distributors doing something similar as well?

    Today I grossed $847.10 on 338 miles. A tad over $2.50 all miles.
    Load 1:Live load, drop
    Load 2: Hook at customer in same town, drop
    Load 3: hook at same location... live unload.
    That was my day.
    I'll clear over $700 today after fuel. I'll take that any day.

    % is about service, not miles.
     
    Dominick253 and GoGetta07 Thank this.

    They do and I called them.
    Long story short, cheap rates over there.

    I wrote about it like a month ago or so.

    That's where I'm at. Right now with rates low I'm doing fairly ok. We aren't on percentage yet, rumors are it's coming sometime this summer. The load board is very limited. Nothing close to what you have here. I shoot for 1.20-1.30 for all miles. That's about the top end here, and you have to run lots of short stuff to get that, but they pay base plates, all tolls, scales, and deadhead.
