    No most do post the load with the FSC included…..for the most part, the FSC is based on the weekly DOE. Some agents are know to give you a lot more per mile for the FSC also….

    So while waiting for a trailer I got everything in order and ready to roll with no pending tasks when I get my trailer... these truck numbers are huge! Anyone know of a place that does Landstar numbers a bit smaller? The all in one DOT# sticker don't look good on a white truck. They look dirty and in hindsight I should have cut them into 3 lines and installed them but they would have been crooked knowing my talent....

    There are a lot of positives to Landstar besides the availbilty to get freight and make money,when you learn how.They will finance your license plates,permits and tire purchases,with no interest charges.Fuel discounts are also huge,almost a dollar a gallon in some instances.Won't find a better price on tires,either.And you get paid quickly.The only thing that will hold your pay up,is if you submit something wrong.I'm retiring from Inway Heavy Haul at the end of the month after a long and prosperous trip with Landstar,have nothing bad to say about them.

    When thoughts of buying a used van enter, the thought of maintenance raises doubt this will be a good investment. Still on the fence on this....

    I just got through reading the entire thread. Thanks for all of the info. Just about to be done with all the paperwork and etc. I should be going to orientation soon. I hope I have the success many of you are having. Your help to others is impressive. BTW...the drug test is urine.
