    Congrats Bolt Express

    Congrats to Bolt Express for their continued growth and Industry recognition:

    There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.
    --Walter E. Williams

    "Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive."

    "The best defense against usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry."
    --William F. Buckley

    "When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right."
    -- Victor Hugo

    Common sense is only "right wing" if you are too far to the left.
    The lesser of two evils is still evil but less evil is preferred to more evil if those are the only two viable options.

    First - Congrats Bolt.

    Second - OVM their annual revenue is one day's operating expenses for two of their competitors

    I want to know who?

    I mean access to the "alliance"?

    I would love to have access too but how, where and who would I talk to?

    Well if you want to talk about behind the times, I have seen ONE company come close to leveraging technology.

    There is a lot of things that can be done with data, many already know what I am talking about.

    You can. Go to Bolt-Express.com and you can see any city, and a wide range of miles from any city. Bolt is not the one behind the times....

    Re: Congrats Bolt Express

    When you use the Bolt site to check for trucks in a certain city and mile radius, you are seeing ALL of the alliance trucks, you can not break out the Bolt trucks....

    That page is really for "clients" to see how many units are avaiable that Bolt has access to, as they can offer loads to the other carriers as all companies do.....

    Id also love to see just the Bolt units in a given area....sure would make life easier...and save me calling dispatch for the info.....
