    Wow, they want to hire somebody at barely more than a starter company driver.

    I'm not seeing a proposed weight there, what does hopper bottoms average. I did some custom harvesting when I was 18 in Texas but I was paid weekly, not by loads/mileage. Just a ton of field to grainery.

    Most are based on 50,000 minimum weight unless specified, don’t know why they’re trying to break it to mileage, out of Jonesboro I’d say either Brewers or Brown rice. Could be Rice Hulls too.

    But that’s at least 400-425 miles, that’s why I’d go 55, might tell them 60/ton just to see if they’d bite..
    But I’m not bidding anything until my airbags come in tomorrow, I just always keep watch.

    I've been all over the forum today, a ton of reading in O/O and also in brokerage. Trying to look for any pain others have experienced, and how to hopefully bypass some of it. I'm really starting to hate hit and run posters....

    Honestly I'm planning on doing my own soon. What's the benefit of having somebody else do it other than a service record and overpaying for somebody to overtighten and ruin seals?
