    Why do so many contractors who 1099 off of owners suck balls?

    There's going to be a real shortage of people answering that they suck balls I'm a contractor but I pay for my own insurance. Last run was 3.97 a mile usd - I don't really understand why people do the 1099 thing but it's probably because it's easy

    Cargo Van Thinking about coming back into expediting ?

    Are they still doing "Driver Inc" type scams in USA? I'm free to say yes or no or get as many customers as I please.

    Yeah they are in stock near me but 200 mile range... I'm not buying either. The solid state tech I was looking at was still over 91% at 500,000 "simulated" miles. Still waiting

    Going Green EV eSprinter

    I wasn't thinking big rig, although Edison Motors has a design that is along the lines of a Ramcharger Edison Motors I don't know about 2027, buy one now if you want. BYD Dolphin is in Europe and Mexico, they haven't entered USA yet.

    To answer the last - you didn't, the only way you could have known is to do it. Best way is as a driver with someone else's equipment The dream that they play to on social media doesn't exist. It's been said time and again here but people would rather believe in something positive I guess

    Not too sure what you mean, solid state batteries are barely out of the lab and definitely not in any mainstream vehicles. Doesn't take but a quick google search to see all the test results (solid state batteries) Today no. But I drive a 2012 In the meantime if I needed one, the BYD Seagull...

    I can see you are unhappy and I get it. I'm interested to hear, what made you think it wouldn't be that way? Social media, or a recruiter? I'm just curious

    Moving to straight truck?

    I enjoy reading your posts so don't take this the wrong way; but have you ever heard it's easier to steer when you are moving and not sitting still? I broke into the business paying a $2000 "job finding fee" at a parasitic loan compnay in 2006, then paid off a lease to own deal which ended up...

    Wait for solid state batteries people. Besides range and early death in commercial use, you can't predict in any way whether it will simply burn A Ramcharger has 700 mile range, but not available until 2025 and its a pickup... Simply no financial or workflow reasons atm for over the road...

    What Is My Title?

    That's a HORRIBLE story and I'm sorry it happened to you. Was hoping it was at least a little funny. Last year, a reputable carrier stopped paying me. It was a complicated route and was for a leg I was involved in. $15,000 and I HAD A CONTRACT. Maybe people will read these and smarten up?

    What Is My Title?

    Yes my response was sarcastic asking for drivers. I'm an owner op If you have resources and don't mind, try it. Not being paid as agreed is most likely the worst thing that could happen to you, although drivers can get mixed up in double brokered theft scams thru no fault of their own PS if it...

    Advice on getting started ?

    Search for expediting companies, and apply as a driver Unless you happen to have enough saved to buy a truck and feed it for a year + living expenses, then whatever happened, you're 20 with time to recover Call insurance FIRST if you try and buy your own

    Everybody used to use Sylectus for expedited Careful, I'm told a lot has changed in 7 years, not only expensive with garbage rates but they don't let you cancel easily The rest have a little on each. If you are posting, just ask for "small straight" and the floodgates will open

    No forced dispatch, what that really means?

    That is VERY true. Hi Ragman hope you and yours are all good My personal view in 2024, I take only what is good for me and don't give a rat's ass what isn't. Not my job to ensure a large faceless corporations profitability, they won't ensure mine
