    If that's a single customer that's different. Talking about daily spot rates not rates for customers he had for 10 years and running into PA and NY doesn't really count.

    People with good rates are not going to announce on this board or any other board how good their rates are, as the vultures opps brokers and other trucking companies will be beating down that door lowballing it...

    A lot of people run for whatever low ball offer they first get. Means nothing.

    As someone once told me, a broker will always think a truck should run for less than market rate.

    Edit to add: thanks for reading.

    Just waiting a attachment with proof. You can cover the important details. Just wanna see mileage and rate.

    But I'll never see those. Thanks

    Miles aren't listed on my settlements. And i don't get a rate con being leased to a carrier. They obviously get one on brokered loads, and i can see it if i want to, but after a proven history of being spot on with the money i stopped checking up on them. But even if i had a settlement with the miles i wouldn't post it. The guys that never get good rates would just claim its been edited.

    Everything else has customer data and location, not putting that on here for a broker to figure out. This is the rate confirmation, heck I don't even get a bol.

    Before you go off about you must have a BOL, no you don't. Just put the customer and product on the log book page.

    Most of my loads have been in the 10-11' range with a couple over 12 and one over 14.

    You think like a new owner operator. I get paid by the load and not the mile.

    Oh and it is none of your business what I make a year, just like it is not my business what you make.

    I will let your imagination run wild.
