<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ralphbohm, post: 11520172, member: 143343&quot;]Okay, let me ask you if they run a forced dispatch.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the answer is no, then what does it matter what they get for a rate. If say, dispatch offers you a 2000-mile load for $6,000 and they are getting, oh say, $8,000, can you make money at $3.00/mi.? I sure could and HAVE!</p><p><br /></p><p>And let&#039;s just say that load after load after load pays to you and your rental truck an average of $3.00/mi. Would you worry much abot what they are getting for the load? I sure wouldn&#039;t because you may want to remember, THEY are the ones who found the load. They are the ones who found the customer; they are the ones who found that shipper. It may even be a loyal customer of THEIR&#039;S, not your&#039;s. But many of you think they are completely obligated to tell you what they are making.</p><p><br /></p><p>Instead, take time and make the effort to pay attention to what the freight lane is paying; ask questions from prospective shippers; get your OWN customers ... or don&#039;t.&nbsp; It&#039;s really simple.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and if you have a problem with their (possible, but improbable) taking off the top of the Ryder truck rental, again, that isn&#039;t the most important problem with that very expensive option. Again, you&#039;re barkin up the wrong tree. If you&#039;re really serious about working with any company, get your own truck your OWN way. Save your money, build your credit rating and buy or lease a truck on your own; then BRING that to them. If they don&#039;t want to go that route with you, simply go somewhere else.</p><p><br /></p><p>Back to the original option: if the answer to running a forced dispatch is &quot;yes&quot;, then maybe they are not the company to go with.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
