Choice program on the West Coast - from company driver to IC

We'll after reading all the post, I've decided on schnieder for a L/P.. I was looking at Roadrunner for awhile but I've made up my mind.. I will be calling on Monday.

 

Well you guys helped me make up my mind I just put in my app and got the call back, they are running my DL and will let me know if I am approved. (NOTHING on my DL and CSA is like -35) no worries. now just need to get a truck and off to green bay I go.

 

I have been reading the many threads and I to am considering the Schneider lease. Just an observation while driving the last 2 days; I have noticed some T 680's with wheel covers on the drives and also these same trucks had the standard black tank skirting vice the painted skirts. Is this the new norm for the IC lease?

 

If your seeing wheel covers, those are prolly company trucks, look for the road swish on the hood and doors, that would confirm it

 

There are a few, small few T-680 company trucks but they are the stripped down version.

 

good luck, you definitely can do better than $1.35 here

 

Man I just checked and its more like 1.18 here now its so sad. got the call yesterday have the ok to haul freight now tomorrow talking with finance department. I love that the info he wants to go over is from an ATBS profit plan. oh ya I have been using ATBS for over 2 years now so I know how to read it. lol

 

$1.18 with fuel surcharge!!?!!?!? Man you're getting swindled by swift. I've gotten loads going WEST out of North York twice for $1.50 all miles or more and that's with Schneider getting their 35%
Tomorrow I'm doing a load going 84 miles paying $424 dollars all miles I'm looking at 115 miles at $3.69
Revenue after fuel costs factors to be about $380 on that load.
At $1.18 you'd have to drive 500 miles to earn about the same after fuel costs lol.
That's how bad $1.18 is.
