    That's my deal. My direct freight never comes anywhere close to gross.

    Yeah, 40k is really heavy for my customer, most loads are 25k to 32k.

    My company's freight out of Laredo is direct , I just like to go somewhere other than home out of there like up to the northwest .
    I gota good rate out and that's OK but I get bored running Nebraska to Laredo and back .

    wanna bet on that 5 minute tarp job?

    I had to pull a set of doubles today and I could have both trailers tapped before you could walk to the back of your trailer. I did this 4 times today. You and your Conestoga.














    I could have sprained a finger pushing the buttons. Had to hold them the whole time the tarp was rolling out.:p:p:p:p
