Has the OP not read that JB Hunt was bragging to the ATA that they were going to under cut every small carrier all summer long, even if JB Hunt had to take a loss???

The difference is that Maverick sends drivers to Owatonna and then they get reloaded at Dewitt, (200m deadhead) or if we get unloaded in Canada we just go to Geneva NY or Carlisle Pa or Carleton Mi. I haven't hauled a coil or lumber or anything flatbed in a long time, (knock on wood).
Sometimes we might deadhead from Owatonna back to Laurinburg or Wichita falls to Church Hill but that is rare, but Moore has your drivers deadheading a lot more, or did before.
Even going to California, Mav used to deadhead us back more but now I seem to get reloaded in Fresno at Vitro glass instead. So instead of a 1400m deadhead its 200 and 1000 loaded to SLC then deadhead 1100 to Wichita falls or less to Spring Hill. -
Maverick never has been a serious contender in the temp controlled biz and 2010 wasnt a good time to expand anything.

Maverick also downsized their recruiting department. Sent three guys back out to trucks. Their own school is doing great so they are not depending on outside schools for students.
