    I'm going back to big O... Rates are the same there maybe a tad lower but the trailer payment washes that away... Was gonna try LS but I'm just not a people person to be on the phone with agents and brokers.. Just not my thing and LS and O are comparable... I'll stick to what I know lol

    That's it... Click it then go.. No buddy system. No waiting for people to get unloaded... The only reason people don't go over to their program is the Orange trailer lol.. I don't care about.. No agents. No brokers... And the average freight pays 1.40 -1.60.. Same as here.. Fuel program isn't the best but the loads are lighter... I think I sat maybe once or twice in my years there and that was by choice.. You can book loads anytime of the day or night weekends as well.. Like I said the difference between them and LS is trailers lol and the agents and brokers..
