    Interesting article on XPO

    I think they are only connecting the expedite drivers wages to LTL, not their total rate to the customer.

    Ummm.................no. Not exactly. If that was the case CRST, Schnieder, and a host of others tried to do it on a price alone. We seen how well that went. :rolleyes: There is a lot more to expedting than just the price point.

    A/C repair in West Memphis?

    The other TAG is on Brooks road for regular repairs. Never used them so I can't say. You are correct though, the body shop is pretty decent. The only other place that I can think of is GW Deisel in downtown Memphis. Work on alot of fire equipment and are also a Allison tranny dealer. Not...

    A/C repair in West Memphis?

    No surprise on the Vegas Freightliner. Heard some horror stories about that place. As far as west Memphis, not much there. I would probably go to Crows on Lamar in Memphis. Here is there number (901) 366-6611

    Common Core Education... there is no wrong answer!

    What is wrong with 2 plus 2 equals 5? White House is still using that math. That is why we are trillions in debt. I like Fox news. They are fair and balanced. :cool:

    What isn't there is where you wind up? Could be good or bad. If good, then you are looking at roughly one seventy a mile.

    Independent Contractor or misclassification?

    We have been audited in the past. No problems, but we also use a attorney. California is in a world of their own out there and many get into issues with the state rather than the IRS itself. I am comfortable where we are at but things could change. If in the event they do, I would set up teams...

    Load Documents

    The actual bill of lading on a load if that is what you are refering to.

    At 1.22 a mile I would question as to whether it is a expedite load? But I would probably go with my original thought of considering that kind of load IF I can shove it on with another one and they are both going the same direction. Sometimes cheap freight can be your friend. :D

    8.3 cummins choking out going uphill

    That engine has two filters. Hopefully you got them both? If it is the turbo it should throw a check engine light. If it is a true 04 and not a rebuild of sorts it shouldn't have a EGR.

    I don't think there is any doubt that some are "just hanging on". I believe you will see a few more carriers drop here shortly.
