DAT vs Truckstop.com

The difference is that in the basic version you have a snapshot instead of a dynamic list, so in order to update you need to refresh the screen. Also, in the pro version, you have about 30 or 40 seconds of advantage before the listings are put on the less expensive versions, also more analytical information and features. I would not say that it does matter to me because I never rush to call. Maybe it has more significance in lean times when 4 trucks are waiting for this one load to show up in the area. It would be best to try the pro version for a month and then go to the basic and see for yourself.

 

Basic dat. Don't overpay. 14 day rates are meaningless. Had truck stop, wasn't impressed. The same brokers are everywhere

 

I've used truckstop for many years, running stepdeck.
I don't like their "new" version, I'm unable to search from "anywhere" to "anywhere".
Is it possible to do that on DAT ?

 

Just checked, no.

 

Truckstop. And primarily have only used the app for the last two years.

 

Pro option may be important when up to the date information is needed. Running produce, it can help one grab an extra 1k out of a haul…or not. Otherwise count the Reefer trailers at the truckstop and compare from the last time you’ve been there. If I wasn’t focusing on the harvest volumes I would go basic. You save a small off subscription being OOIDA member. Good luck and stay away from Reefer, nothing but problems. Leave it to me, I’m a weirdo that likes doing it.
