    Nope and not even thinking about it.
    I highly doubt I could get better rates direct than I'm getting doing my own thing currently.

    I wouldn't get out of bed for $1.02 a mile unless I was a true company driver. Then I'd be a half hour early.

    I think you're doing it right. I can see raising a rate a little if a broker is in a bind but trying to gouge them for $6 a mile on a $3 a mile lane is not good business. That's the same as price gouging.
