    HELP ME OUT,DONT KNOW IF IM A IC OR YES MAN

    Most people would ask who you are running for that you are getting tose loads solo....then I would say being out since oct 3rd is not really an exceptionally long time....I stay out 8-10 weeks at a time, or as long as I am making money. -charlotte

    Who's getting the better deal

    If a truck is returned to us not up to standards, the drivers are charged 300$.....this includes a truck wash also (we pay for all washes and the number of people that reurn a truck not washed is surprising) We have had to charge some people but MOST know what we expect and return the trucks...

    It has happened with 2 out of 3 new 07's and also on our 05 columbia. Once you tell the shop " I could care less if there is no code being thrown, the check engine light does not come on without a reason, and antifreeze does not evaporate....check the complete egr system." Then they usually...

    Questioning 60/40 split for contractors

    I got to tell ya....out of 12 teams 8 drove for other owners that made them pay for fuel.....and part of the reason they run for us is we pay fuel, tolls, truckwashes, ANYTHING that has to do with running of truck.

    well I for one do not see where you were attacked.....but are you truly that sensitive about someone questioning something you write? Perception is a powerful thing......I was told by a very wise person one time that reality does not matter if someone perceives it differently. as far as taking...

    how far did you go after delivery to reposition? everyone always leaves that part out. your case works better in some instances....but not most.....you idle your truck while waiting for a load? how much fuel? bottom line is whatever you feel comfortable with....we do 40/60 because we feel like...

    Rich, I do not think you are racist, HOWEVER: (caveat here) I do see and understand how your statement would offend and be preceived as such. I do not see Buffalo, NY described as a small border town that pregnant Mexican females can use to have their baby thus making a new US citizen on ADC...

    I have seen many times they lost equipment...plus at panther now we have the omnivision...which is a much different unit than standard qc. Anyway I think the 3 of us agree that no one pays their bills off the charges that we incur. -charlotte

    The charges were not just the charges for the unit I was referring to, but the message charges as well. We never get yelled at for the length of messages or told not to use qc.....I am certain the profit margin if at all is slim and I am still willing to bet that they are losing money because of...
