    This is totally bizarre! I'm with you JD, I'm way more suspicious now than I would have been otherwise. Who are you using to check credit?

    At least you got one straight-up answer..

    This is insulting really. Like we aren't smart enough to figure out what is happening.

    Tried to use them once but qouted rate based on posted miles turned out to be off. WAY more practicle miles when I got actual pick-up city and drop city.
     
    112racing and Hanadarko Thank this.

    I understand your worry about first time users, but I would not reccomend them to you so you can get burnt by them...dont use them if you dont want to, more loads and money for me, obviously your loss! You must not make any mony being so skeptical.

    I have used them twice for a short load. Been at least a year. One turned into a drawn out ordeal for payment,the other was fine. Both rates were lower but i was moving the trucks anyway.
    Wonder how many more will join today with 1-2 posts.

    OK, this puts it over the top for me.
    Seems that the scamers always want to use the fear of "you are going to miss this great deal".

    BS - The rate is the rate. Small time company with all these newbs that use them to cover all these MT trucks. Sounds like they have as many loads as LS, CHR, etc but for some reason post very few loads on the boards.

    Oh, wait, I forgot, because they are so great all these other companies are getting these great loads before they hit the boards.

    You better send that agreement in. It may be months before you see another uncovered load posted by them.

    You've got the cards Handarko - a flatbed. Plenty of good paying freight out there. If it was me I believe I would pass on these jokers.
     
    BigBadBill, Hanadarko and josh.c Thank this.

    Just sitting around playing on the internet, huh? Bet you wish you worked for a company that could keep you rolling.

    This sitting sucks and then it will be "can you drive two trucks at once?"

    You should view all these posts as more a testiment of how good the broker is not as unethical, that doesn't make sense. How many brokers do you know or work with now that could mobilize so many carriers like this to stand up for them? I know I wouldn't for any other borker. I gain nothing by giving a good opinion of them, I am trying to help an owner op find a good broker because I know its hard to be successful as one. Coyote doesn't need you to haul their loads, that should be obvious by now given the number of carriers that have posted. You stand to gain far more by working with them than they do and they won't lose anything if you don't use them but you will be missing out on what could be your best contact for good loads.

    Bill,
    Who is this post directed at?
    Seems to me, all three of us are sitting around playing on the NET!
