    What's wrong with Schneider?
    I've been here a few yrs and have done very well for a l/o here. Iwas in this industry 23yrs before I came on board here.
    Have you ever ran on the choice board or had and personal experience with sfitrucks?
     
    bzinger Thanks this.

    No IC. Just read the posts and have talked with people that do it. Saw first hand what your supposed fuel discounts are, and how much you pay for stock trucks.
    If you and zing want to wake up in debt up to your ###, and make the mega money, that's your business, but I'd rather throw newspapers before I ever did that.

    I don't run the Northeast anywhere near as much as I use to.
    Too much competition..as in new IC's.
    Seems when they're in orientation they tell all of them thats where the money is.

    Anyway..I run OUT of the Northeast..bounce around the Midwest or down south.
    And can ALWAYS catch a good paying load back in to the Northeast..where I live.

    I waited 20 years before coming to SNI..leased a truck and when it was complete bought my own.
    It works for me for now..but I and a few others can see the writing on the wall.
    It may be time to make a move.
    SNI has it's strong points and weak ones..just like any other company.

    To each his own.
     
    bzinger and driverdriver Thank this.

    I ran a ton of Jersey runs because nobody else wanted to. I never really got that. Traffic is traffic unless you are in Chicago.

    Maybe
    Well I should probably clarify myself , I like to go into the Northeast and load back out .
    I wouldn't be thrilled about bouncing around between Boston and nyc all week .
