    Right, dune. But I'm looking for info from LS drivers who had bad experience with a certain LS agent. I can start and name a few who lie: SBD agency, PIB agency, are two.

    Look for another broker having the same load. Most of landstar loads I've seen in the last couple years
    are double,triple, and quadruple brokered Quickest way to tell is when you call and they say hold on let me check to see if it's still available.

    Landstar is okay brokers are brokers good and not so.. I lost money at landstar for a little while because of what I didn't know. The loads are negotiated at a rate without fuel you have to figure your own fuel cost out then get you rate under those terms. I generally ran 1-600 mile lads and did ok.. I came from the tanker business and couldn't believe the dishonesty of some of the brokers.. They will eat you alive if you don't know how to talk to them.., I left and went into the tanker business again hated Dry Box...
