He'd be at it a while. I-80 doesn't go to KC.

Could not agree with you more, Phil. It's like saying that you need to buy a new truck......because "you need a write off". CD & OVM- I'd say to run your logic past your accountant. If they agree with you, fire them.

Huh? If you incur the toll charge, and Load-1 pays you for that expense, there's no gain. What am I missing.....the metric conversion?

Experts say between 4 and 24 billion? I've seen more accurate home pregnancy test kits.

I was thinking that if they couldn't get out on the weekend.

Not a nightmare? Try explaining that to the fleet owners who had to park their trucks, because they couldn't purchase fuel despite having cash in their accounts. Oh wait.....you drive for a fleet owner, don't you? And yes, we know how to follow their new logon instructions. We did that. Cupcake.

I actually called the FDIC other day to find out if they were still in business. I fear they won't be, after this all settles, and folks start filing lawsuits. This debacle was one grade A cluster fudge. Like Shawn, We checked our balance at an ATM. Since we have the account linked with USAA...

Guess I would ask is how did it lose prime?

I would agree. Regarding your other post, thank you. However, as it stands now, though, we're content waiting for the beep...or "a new message has arrived".

What, no pic?

If you some of you are not following the Berry's ALS journey on Facebook, I ask that you consider doing so. While Myrian nor I have ever met them, Jack was a solid presence here on EO that commanded my attention. Gracie's recent Facebook post suggests that they are going through significant...

Yep, I'm aware of that. Very aware.

And the learning continues.... It may not work for that/those specific independents, or that type of independent period? I guess what I'm asking, is that just because those independents fail, won't there be some more warm bodies that fill their void when they do, in an endless, ugly cycle?

I'm fairly familiar with our carrier's use of outside contractors to haul their freight. I became familiar when sitting in Woodstock, Ontario, and asked why I turned down a fairly cheap load. After I told them we wouldn't move our truck at that rate, they replied that if we didn't, they would...

Gotta read the terms of service, and you were probably told why, sem63. You have less than 10 posts, which qualifies you as a 'drive-by' poster when posting negative content. Say "thanks for the tip," and then you'll have 7. Get the picture?

As the guy with orthopedic shoes, I stand corrected. Maybe indirectly; maybe sometimes directly. On occasion we do get offered bid board loads. Guess I should look at that differently. Learned something new today. Thanks, Charles.

Yes, but is there an incentive to get involved....like many of the bigger players causing a stink with Sylectus? Obviously, I don't have a dog in this fight, but the downward pressure on rates would drive me, and my contractors nuts. I'm just curious.

How much did you spend on your truck, CM? Next, how much time did you do in Surface Expedite before you put that WG/TVAL truck in the fleet? Now, do you get Greg's point?

If you were on your way to Massachusetts, you were probably on I-95, and that is the George Washington Bridge. If it makes you feel any better, it's a lot better than it used to be. Wonder how you'd feel if you were getting bounced around in a tractor cab and learned you had to pay $65 to...

You guys are so far ahead of the curve. Where's that 'envy' button?
