Wave of the future. Just a matter of time b4 all companies require them. Hoping they can justify the cost of a $40k sprinter. Not doing this to break even.

Appreciate it. Sounds like a good company. Knowledge is key. That's why I ask.

I've gotten used to sitting 48+ hrs. I am a solitary master on my phone!

Wish I could talk to ur drivers to c what they say about Load1. What I've heard so far is good. Problem is they r always rolling! :)

When it all comes down to it, you have to trust the company u work for until that trust is broken. That's why I've been w/ my owner 8+yrs. I have 100% confidence he will take care of me. That's why I take care of him.

The quote was direct. It was directly from the company I was working for. Like I said, it was a couple of years ago. Now we r flat rate.

Problem is Alot of companies say that. I've never heard anything bad about ur company. I got the info over the qc, then got to the customer. The customer, being new to the company, hands me the quote from the company. It doesn't match! Hmm. Hasn't personally happened in a couple of years. My...

The company w/ the most quality drivers r going to survive. They don't seem to understand that. They would rather churn & burn drivers. Panther was doing that, according to boss. Now, they are trying to rebuild their reputation w/ the drivers. FedEx will b next.

He's seen firsthand how hard it is to get quality drivers. Some companies r starting to c that also. Not a lot, but some.

My owner used to be like that. He's starting to wise up. Wouldn't work for another owner. Been w/ him 8+ yrs. He's the only reason I'm still w/ the company I currently run for.

Never thought of the progressive thing. Not a bad idea. I say go w/ ur instinct. I think they already know the answer. Remember, ur a fleet owner, nice guys go out of business. Sucks, but true.

Those were the days.

FedEx, back in the day, used to offer 57 1/2%. 58% if u ran big logos.

Fleet owners typically offer those deals.

I'm thinking she is talking about driving for a fleet owner. Most companies give flat rate cpm. A few still do percentage.

True. Company never tells u true pay? Say it ain't so. Ur no recruiter.;)

Cargo van single. Someone has to do it.:) A tank for me is around 400mi. Do the math & c what makes sense for ur situation. Did straight truck 8 1/2 yrs. For mom & pop outfit. I have a parking spot after 6p at a truck stop. have my license to kill, never used it yet. Keep it just in case NASCAR...

Hear that! Don't ask my opinion on FedEx right now. :)

I agree. I know people that r on 40/60 split that this is an issue. Definitely need a contract. Their owner gets upset because they go home every wknd ( can't really blame owner) no matter where they r in the country. My rule is one tank. If I'm within a tank of fuel, I might go home.

Hope ur right! Would make it even easier!
