    If you had your choice.....what would kind of services would you like to see from the load board of your choice. All load boards offer truck posting, Load Posting, Freight Matching, customer service. What is something different you would like to see.

    I want one that employs people to actually drive over to the broker and punch them in the face for insulting me

    Maybe a 1-800 shake down number to handle a few knee caps with baseball bats. That may raise a rate or two.

    lets try a new approach??????:biggrin_25525: hi mr broker we are truck drivers,we haul the cloths on your back your fancy bottle of wine you like the wood or bricks that build your very nice home,when all the while you keep inching up your cut of the pie and squeezing us out when fuel prices are high and frieght is low,so after you get thru bending us over please leave your address so we know whitch house to drive our trucks thru to cut down on our mileage ,due to thr riseing cost to keep the truck on the road,thank you very much mr broker for your time :biggrin_25514:

    Wally,

    I use Internet truckstop. I had get loaded at one time, but some of the brokers were telling me they they didnt use it. Seems to be more loads on internet t.s. and I like it better.

    Datconnect is probably the best, but also the most expensive.

    The transcore 360 website has the most loads, but it is $99 a month. When I was using the free trial at Getloaded they seem to have a lot of the same loads that internet truckstop had and the transcore 360 website had. I use internet truckstop only now and have no problems finding loads. I also use D&S Factors which is attached to internet truckstop, so I get free credit ratings for the brokers on the website.
