Who to lease trucks to...

Where are you working now Med. Man? You get the Pete on the road?

 

Nevermind, I see you are driving the Chicken truck for Arnold.

 

ya I took a job at Arnold. Need to get some money before I can drive my truck

 

Bame, I see some of their guys around the Memphis,Tn area... Most of the ones I have talked with have been with them for years.Never heard any of them say anything bad about them. Of course the ones I talk to mostly run TN,KY,AR,IN,OH,IL kinda regional out of Nashville,TN. According to them they have good rates. I have hauled brokered loads through them that paid me 2.00 to 2.25 per mile. Mostly out of IN,OH into MS,TN

Dont know how they would be on your end there in TX as I dont go to TX (freight toooooo cheap)LOL

 

I talked to one of their former drivers the other day. He left them a month ago after being leased to them for 15 years. He said the reason was the rates. He says over the last four months,he averaged $1.28 to the truck and NO fuel surcharge.

That is only one EX contractor so take it for what it's worth.

 

I thought that sounded too good to be true. I was about to make that call myself at those rates

 

i have my own authority,but i would go with landstar.i do my own thing with flowers in spring and summer but i have to ##### out the other 4 or 5 months.70 percent to landstar.i have never had an issue with them and they have gone way beyond theirselfs to make me happy,i'm very hard to please

 

hore,is what u blipped out ha!ha!also the rate most companys advertise is outbound. alot less inbound
