    So who should set rates?
    The market or a govt bureaucrat?
    I'm sure when you go to buy a new a car you go look and see who will sell the model that you want the cheapest to you or do you voluntarily pay a higher price.

    So,now Mercer vans are averaging over $2 a mile? If that's the case. I stand corrected. I never once mentioned anything about Mercer rates or SNI rates. That was Mercer guys bragging about rates. I am tempted to come over and compare.

    If you read my post after his you'll see I corrected it. Who was bragging about rates? All I said was choice wasn't the best van program. I didn't say anything about rates.

    Go back & read my post. I quoted the one guy wanting to start at choice. Told him he could do it & be fine.

    I only quoted you because you said choice was the best van program, which is not true. You can't say that because everyone is different. What is good for me may not be good for you & so forth. Plus, you've never been leased here so you know nothing about Mercer except what you've heard from those that left Schneider & came to Mercer but couldn't make it. I don't care who runs where, just don't be telling people that choice is the best cause it isn't the best for everyone.

    Take that and put it into Schneider's perspective, they're not going to voluntarily offer the ICs big money loads when the ICs willingly haul cheap freight.

    That's why this program fell apart and why soo many have jumped ship and the sad part is there's 2 drivers lined up willing to haul cheaper when one of us leaves.
    Until that changes the good money days at Schneider are over.
