    And another thing, if it's so great in the south; Why aren't you living here and setting up shop here for your operation?

    Chicago going anywhere usually pays #### near 2 bux a mile on the low end in my experiences. I'm in Dallas and the rates here have sucked for the last 6 months if not longer.

    In thinking about it, a cheap rate to you or myself could very well be a great rate to someone else. There have been many times when after calling a Broker, I have to wonder who would take a load for that. But guess what, in a matter of minutes that cheap load is gone.

    GeorgeB,

    Thanks for asking sir, but I don't want to give away too many specifics. I don't limit myself to regional.

    I would vote for Chicago, north west Indiana specifically.
