Are you in a van or straight truck?

As I am new on these boards, I am probably doing a REPEAT post and in the wrong place at that. I'm sure SOMEBODY will let me know that. I am interested in knowing if any of you fine Cargo Van / Sprinter Van expedite drivers would mind sharing your average mileage from Jan - May...

He just didn't want to regurgitate his resume here online. Nicely said Turtle. Thank you very much. I almost regurgitate when I RECALL my resume. Thanks to all of you that offered advise. I have made my decision and the CAT is the winner - or I'm the sucker - or, well......Here goes...

What is your contract rate?

Thanks for the input. I know the guys at T&K and the scenarios you speak of are what I am concerned about with my option 3. I can make it work on the Panther program, so I think that is the way I'm leaning. Thanks again. :)

Orientations are usually held on Mon-Tue or Wed-Thur. They have them most every week, but I understand that MAYBE during the first week of July they will not be having them due to a driver appreciation week or something like that. You are correct in assuming that this time is used for drug...

I would agree. I was a Premium Transportation Coordinator for an "NLM" type of company and one of the largest customers was YRC. As they strive to cut costs on their LTL and linehaul moves they utilize expedite more frequently. Regardless though, I hope we are at the bottom of the fallout.

I originally planned on Option 3. Had not even considered 1 and 2 because they were unavailable. Neither company was even TAKING cargo vans - and technically - they still aren't. So I've figured things each way. Just want some OUTSIDE INput. Thanks

Greetings, I have just purchased a cargo van that I will be putting into service within the next week or two. I have a few options available to me and wanted to share them with you with the HOPE of getting some expert opinion on what would be the wisest move. Before you post - PLEASE DO...
