Who would take this load ??

Landstar said my truck was to old it is a 2000

 

5.70 per mile where and who ???

 

I have pulled many loads paying $7-$10 per mile going 130 miles. . Easy money...

Few weeks ago I pulled a load out of Michigan going to Missouri 450 miles paid $11.88 per mile. Not oversize or nothing. Legal pipe load just heavy at 51,000lbs. Hot load needed it now. I deadheaded from the house to pick it up and then deadheaded from Missouri to the house.

 

so you run under your own authority

 

You can often score with short miles loads. I had a short load that allowed me to sit a day and stay in the same market.

Helped with the rate bringing me home for the week.

It works on the law of averages.

Mega-mile loads are nice like that on occasion, but 300-600 miles long loads tend to bring better rates with them. Almost regional like.

 

call Sammons, might be a stretch, but also talk with Bill at farm to fleet. He posts alot. Seems like a fair person
Some say Mercer also.
There several that post that are with them...

 

MNdriver is leased to a company. I am currently leased to a company. I will be getting my authority in the middle of march for something different though. The thing about the big money per mile is they are short hauls but I can do a couple short hauls faster and make better money.

 

F2F has my vote since BBB drove a volvo..

 

THE thing is my truck is a 2000 and sammons and mercer said to old

 

F2F runs flat bed or dry van and you'd be in the fleet for age. I actually have the second newest truck and it's a 2007.

We are self-dispatched and I have been getting most of my loads off of Internet truck stop.

You make of it what you put into it here. I am a "rookie" o/o. I just bought my truck in July. I can't say I have made a killing, but I am holding my own for the most part.
