Today, it seems all trucking pays about the same, and our society has morphed into , do the least amount of work for the most pay, and I don't see things changing anytime soon. The fact that the industry generally pays 3 TIMES what I made, tells me, there isn't enough money, or interest, to make people do this anymore.Hammer166, ducnut, Lennythedriver and 2 others Thank this. -

Seeing how the article didn’t really say what kind of truck they were gonna use. I wonder if the wokeness of GM is gonna make them try a fleet of electric?

Not to put on my GM cape because if they didn’t pay me what they do I wouldn’t care about them.
BUT.
3 years ago when they first started this project they told us what the end goal was. Everyone laughed. Nobody thought it would get off the ground. We were all “ dumb” for signing up. But it’s working. Not the way they thought it would, but they’ve adapted and made the changes.
I strongly believe if this works it’s going to change the drive away segment for the better. No more long term meaningless contracts for the brokers to double and triple book, no more cutting rates to secure a ramp you know you can’t service. We might be back to making great money again.
GM isn’t going anywhere. Hoping they fail is like hoping the president fails because you didn’t vote for him. Instead look at it as possible light at the end of the tunnel. We needed a good shake up this might be it. I know for a fact Ford is looking for a dedicated carrier, and Fiat’s dedicated has been around for years.ducnut Thanks this. -

We are not a “ dedicated carrier “ we are exclusively run by GM. In fact our paperwork states “ GM Dedicated “D.Tibbitt, Jubal Early Times and ducnut Thank this.
