    I found LTC had a lot of low paying local work. That's the reason I never signed on with them, their overall rpm was lower then I was willing to work for.

    Yea some local work was like 25 $ hr for O/O and preloads for oil loads 50 $. Dedicated oil loads are around buck a mile for a round trip. Even container work that I do now pays way better than that

    Not to hijack; didn't know you made the jump from tanks to containers. I know you were talking about switching things up a bit.... so that's why you haven't been in the tanker thread lately, LoL~! ;)

    Yea I switched to containers a month ago. I looked around but jump into this work to check it out. Don't have time to dig around for other work I got family visiting me from Europe. I try to work part time and spend time with them. Once they leave I will look around for other stuff. Tried to switch to Dana for ISO work, but it's slow for them at the moment.

    From what I heard quality carriers only bought boasso to prevent xpo to have a almost monopoly on the intermodal side and I spoke to some drivers and yes they change dispatchers a lot and those who last a long time you have to give them a few bucks to get the good paying loads... pretty much a pay to play... but I really think Dana is a good place since you can do both, if quality streamlines operations it would be perfect but I don't see that happening. But they are keeping me extremely busy.
