    The glider option would be so much easier to go through with without the eobr regulation.

    Brokers are in abundance and are beating the rate down and there are truckers who will run for 1.19 a mile flat. Dont do it. Keep your equipment on good paying runs and in good condition. these idiots will be out of business in two years tops. When your truck blows up and you dont have the money reserves to fix it you will remember me, and you will be out of business. i make 800 to 1200 a day. run local and interstate. 1.50 mile plus fuel.

    Yea thats a sweet w900 there for sure, and with fuel prices below $2 today it doesnt make alot of difference honestly. We got 7.26 mpg last year hub mile true average, step deck, some OD loads, fast as I feel like going...I remember when fuel was through the roof 8 years ago a lot of people were crying & closing up shop. Its just insurance. IMG_0304.JPG My Iphone-Life 2697.JPG

    Oh yes Sir, we don't mess with the cheap stuff. O/O's cut their own throat moving the low rates. Last fall my dead heads were getting ridiculous - Co, ks, oh, etc back to Tennessee empty rather than play in that game.
