Slushy snow in Omaha

For Fast Food 1. In N Out 2. Whataburger 3. Bronco`s in Omaha (Local fast food restaurant) 4. I still like a Big Mac 5. Fuddruckers is good but the last time is was fairly pricey

I see what you’re saying but there is a big gap between fair and what the market will bare. For example I ship full truckloads from Omaha Ne all over the country, we have a local (National) TL carrier who had rates around $2.95 per miles on their company trucks, but we had several brokers who...

I think it’s a preference, I had Skyline and it had kind a cinnamon taste to it which didn’t seem right. While I didn’t care for it the others I was with loved it. Being raised in Texas and now living in the Midwest I prefer mine Hot and Spicy…..James Coney Island was good back in the day, great...

I walked over into Nuevo Laredo last summer and it was OK, it was in the day so I felt a bit safer and I only took $25 and my license. The exhaust fumes almost choked me out :) I am not sure it was a smart move but I stayed for a few beers and and an hour of people watching. I was afraid to eat...

I have been on the Transportation side and the manufacturing side and one constant I always see….we ask carriers to lower rates every year, fuel and maintenance for the carrier always seem to be on the rise and regulatory complexities add to the carriers issues. The flow seems to travel downhill...

Thats awesome. How do you like your GMC??

Thanks shadow7663, I see quite a few people on here showing there pride in Load 1....nice to see

Just curious if its smarter to get a truck first and then get a job or find out what type of equipment is needed. I am looking at getting a straight truck but I would hate to purchase anything and not be a benefit to the company I am looking to sign on with. Observation to Companies, I have...

Thanks! I am from Houston and have been looking to get back. I`ve heard good things about Load One along with a few other companies. I am trying to do my research so its good to see some positive remarks

I finally joined and feel like I already know a little about a quite a few of you after lurking in the shadows for a few month. I have been researching expediting and Hot Shot for about 7 months and am almost ready. I am a Supply Chain Logistics Mgr but started out picking up and delivering...
