mercer transportation

Stink? What did i do? Guessing this is in relation to that screen shot i sent ya? Being a high class ##### pays big dividends. That might not be the best load I've pulled here, but its #### close.

And on that note, i don't think you got to worry about losing out due to an influx of conestogas. You know as well as i do that the vast majority of our competition(other mercer guys) don't have what it takes, or won't do what it takes, to thrive here. In other words, they can't or won't sell themselves. they will do no more than look at the board and take what's offered from their coordinators.

 

Would it be quicker to take 74 to 80 to WY or 74 to us 34 to 80 lol. Doing 34 saves miles but I think that's 1 lane roads.

 

We're not used to all of the tolls in the US. Well (LOL) the other day we were on Hwy 76 and pulled up to the window to pay with a $20 in our hand. IT WAS $188!! Holy cow!! That will be the last time we take that highway! Good thing they accepted credit card!
Where else can we expect very expensive tolls?

 

Everywhere in the northeast. It's cheaper if you have an electronic toll device. Check BestPass.com

 

Yep. PA is the worst and can usually be completely avoided for free (well 50 extra miles). All of the northeast has tolls from Illinois east that you need to watch for. All the bridges near NY but some are a lot cheaper than others. Best pass will save you a lot of money.

 

I am hanging out in Louisville,. Might check on a covered wagon

 

But i thought you said its only 8 cpm more in revenue and straight flat is always the way to go.

 

I agree with CJ. Lol

 

The good news is, im not the only one that got one of those. There was several.

Guys this market is on fire. Don't sell yourselves short. There is great money to be made right now. Its almost a name your price market. Don't be afraid to high ball a rate offer.

 

Watch our for pa 76. It's expensive going all the way across.
