    Sylectus sold!!

    Sure I did everything I could do, that means bids, calls, updating the trucks, etc. The only explanation I could see is that they don't wanna do business with new companies... I've been in expediting since '95, always as O/O, and I never had problems, not even when I had to deal for 7 years...

    Synthetic oil good or not?

    I switched to synthetic oil when my van had already over 300000 miles, and I did it just to save time with the oil changing at every 3-4000 miles. Since I switched to synthetic oil, I change it somewhere between 7 to 10000 miles. And I always use Pennzoil 10-30... with the old van I almost...

    Sylectus sold!!

    Fees for membership start at $150 (plus $100 for so-called orientation, which actually doesn't exist), but if you upgrade your membership, it can reach the unbelievable fee of "few thousands"... and no, there aren't 2000 members, but somewhere over 500...

    To me it can't be worse than it's now. I've been in the alliance for almost three months and I ain't got not even a 10 mile run. Lucky me with Landstar brokers... :mad:

    Expedited load boards

    It's very hard to get an account with NLM, they're very selective. On the other hand, if you go for Sylectus Alliance, they'll accept you, but it's gonna be very hard to get loads from there, especially if you have only cargo vans. The top daily loads that board offers is around 600, mostly for...

    Why would i want to show OOS

    I've been working for several expediting companies, and everyone was doing the same thing when I was going OOS, I mean going to the bottom of the list. They won't do that to you if you're the only one in the area, or if you drive for a small carrier. Oh, even small tiny carriers do that from...

    Driving for Multiple Carriers

    It's not about getting more loads at once, but being busy all the time... few years ago, when I was with bolt ex-yuck-press, I asked them three weeks in advance to get me a load toward my place, and they where trying to keep me as far as possible from home. I had to ask a small company to get me...
