    There are couple of agents on the van side that are notorious for not pulling down bad loads...I feel your frustration. Tomorrow you'll probably get a homerun load :)

    Ok, maybe that's the issue when mr Huds asked me it didnt dawn on me till now.

    I've been hitting the space bar. Now I got it right with the return button. Thank you.

    Hi, I have a lease purchase truck that I can move. I was thinking of going to Mercer pulling vans. Can anyone give me a quick rundown of the pro’s and con’s. Thanks

    Pros: you are totally in control and responsible for your success or failure.

    Cons: Mercer will let you go broke cause they don't baby sit you or hold your hand.

    If you're coming over pulling a Van with a lease truck you might have some trouble.. The learning curve might be a bit much along with the weekly payments

    Nope. Usually pretty good rates going in. I live in Oklahoma and usually get to the DFW area then dead head home. Getting out you'll find a good rate every now and then but usually the rates are just decent.
