    What is a BCO? Sounds like it could be a name that somehow tries to make you sound that you are part of some team and a valued member. Am I wrong?

    No kidding about Texas sucking bad right now...

    I don't come back into Texas for anything less than $1.50 to my truck so about 2.30 2.40 on the load board.

    Another friend of mine is running 9 trucks with them right now and he is steering clear of Texas until he brings the drivers back home to El Paso

    Houston or Laredo are your only options right now...

    San Antonio, Dallas, and Austin have been dead for quite a few weeks now.

    If you all are ever in El Paso let me know.
