    Im starting a new adventure on Feb 17. I have signed on to Covenant's Expedite division and it is run by Farm 2 Fleet. I have heard great things about F2F and after speaking with the owner Bill, I like my decison. Basically its the best of both worlds. You run good paying expedite freight, and haul general freight back to expedite lanes rather than sitting around waiting for a good expedite load. Pays 80% Was told bottom avg is $1.60/mi with fsc. but typically better. The advantage of running under Covenant is the large freight base to pull from as well as good insurance rates and good fuel discounts.

    I will post my experiences as I go along.

    We are running under f2f and although very happy, this program is very tempting. We are strongly considering it.

    If you park on the South Side of town near Main and Market there is a free shuttle that runs up and down Market street all day
