    Re: An Injustice Averted

    WOW! Care to splain that one? Could it be that you typed in mid thought and may have left something out? How can sitting C O S T you more than when you are moving???? Remember you said it twice here. Dang, now I have to build and program a Greg334 decoder ring....

    Express 1 Buyout

    I never said I had trucks that ran fine, maybe if that is what you read then I can see where you made no sense out of it. Well, maybe I missunderstood your comments. Are you saying that Express-1 was poorly managed? (driver) Are you saying that Express-1 was or is in some kind of...

    Express 1 Buyout

    Sure we are, we can see all there is to see about both. But now you are trunning towards contracted rates. There is no "Padding Profits" where did that come from. How would they Pad profits? Revenue is revenue and profit is profit...Leave contracted rates out of it, that is a by-product and...

    Express 1 Buyout

    Yep, but Express-1 was not under-preforming. Call it what you want, it is a all out buy out, don't be fooled by the word "investment". The practices of the past paid off very well and will continue to do so to keep those share holders happy. His plan are just like any other corp. raider. Buy...

    Express 1 Buyout

    All of these "Investers" always put in their own managment team, for good reason, they have a lot invested and want to put in place proven (to him) a team that knows his style. I said this from day 1. You can also look for a merger of Express-1 and other compainies as they come on. Not to say...

    Express 1 Buyout

    Not sure you understand or not. Jacobs didn't invest in Express-1 due to being run "Horribly" nor was it "something major wrong". If you think this way I have some trucks I'll sell you and you can go in and spend 10,000 dollars each just to get them running fairly. Then you can repair them...

    US Express gets into Expediting

    Sure, it is not unusual to see a 1.00 per mile + FSC....But, what rate of the FSC? You folks that get 100% of the FSC are doing very good. Your carrier is not putting limits on your income. Some could see 1.40 per mile, I only see 1.20, the rest of my .20 in FSC goes into the pot.......and given...

    Express 1 Buyout

    I have been through at least 5 "take overs" What would it matter how many of us have stocks in Express-1? Didn't you buy some when it was around .62 per share? Bahahahahahahaha!

    Express 1 Buyout

    I like your way of thinking. The 150 million investment is in Express-1, some say he will sell that part off.LOL Just goes to show ya. He may sell it off but only after the investment pays off. That is the style of this type of investment. He seems to be a creature of habit, where he moves in...

    Nissan Enters Expediting...

    Yeah, 10 feet of cargo space. I do like the cab forward, looks like their pick-up truck made into a van. Be good to get out over the wheel well.

    US Express gets into Expediting

    Hello, sure it has a redeeming factor...It cooks the books so you LQQK good. Say, and I know this as true, YOU AS A SPRINTER, GET A LOAD TO TOLEDO FROM Memphis. You get .70 per mile + .19 in FSC, However, Express-1 gets total pay of over 1800 dollars. THAT is a BIG redeeming factor, for the...

    Express 1 Buyout

    I know a guy who knows a guy....lol One of our customers stated that he could not afford Exprees-1 due to the high FSC... Rate was high for cargo van, FSC was over the top at .40 per mile, at the time we were getting .19. Yep- all about the revenue on paper, reports, and operations review.

    Express 1 Buyout

    It is true, Jacobs has or will buy out the controlling share's of Express-1. Been on both sides of this coin. Corp. raider, build the company, cut the upper management, put his own team in there. Build on what is there, buy other carriers out, build on the expedite business, no spin off, he is...
