    Miami-Dade County Misplaces 298 New Cars

    Maybe Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was going to give them to the GSA. After all, she is from Miami. Oh darn, I forgot. She is worrying lately about what Romney's wife is wearing.

    LRT, Landshark, or Errands 1st

    I think I would just go and run "Errands". No point in chasing any of them for cheap loads or chasing the pay. Never heard of a company called Errands.

    I like this guy!

    Considering he is in fourth place currently it really is a very long shot. Like he needs them all to drop out. At this point I am not sure he can even beat Santorum who isn't really in the race at this point. Might get past Gingrich but that isn't saying much. I don't really see a way for him...

    I like this guy!

    Well let me ask this question Rlent. Without links, pictures, or anything else, do you still think Paul is going to win the nomination? Just have to wonder at this point.

    I like this guy!

    I can't argue that. Maybe that is why they aren't voting. They are still sleeping.;)

    just a few questions for the senior expeditors

    Can't say anything on Bolt but I can say at Panther, 1.60 a mile would be a average for many depending on what the contract is since there are many. Straights just on the base rate are at 1.20 to 1.40 for a dry van plus FSC. .30 cents extra on Government jobs. Reefers are 1.55 to 1.75 on the...

    Hit by Lightning

    We had that happen and it fried the QC. Big burn spot on the top of the truck but no other damage. Don't know who you have for insurance, but it should be covered.

    Cat Coolant in Fuel

    Not sure if it helps your situation, but we had a similar situation and it turned out to be a cracked injector tube. Very difficult to detect.

    Supposed non force dispatch.

    That is usually the biggest problem at many carriers including my own. The recruiting side is disconnected from the operational side. As operations sends people out the door from goofy game playing, the recruiters are throwing cash to try to subsidize it. Some spend way too much time...

    I like this guy!

    And there is his problem. He can gather a crowd but can't get them to vote. If so, he wouldn't be in last place. I guess the good news while a little late, he may be able to finish second since everyone else dropped out. Instead of a half hour speech at the convention they may give him an hour...

    Supposed non force dispatch.

    Recruiters are only there for the "First" pieces of information on a carrier. They should not be there for the final decisions.

    Fedex Flagship from MATS finally hits the road

    Awesome ride! Including the heated seats.;)

    Landstar Agents

    Most of what we have done has been manufacturing. Don't think we have done anything that was automotive. Easy to work with and Panther is already set up in their systems. One call basically does it all.

    Supposed non force dispatch.

    Some are already.

    What a vacation

    Now that we are in debt up to our eyeballs, I wouldn't give a vacation pass to Bush or Obama.

    Supposed non force dispatch.

    Is that a reward or punishment?

    Another Neoconmunist Comes Out Of The Closet ....

    Here is a place we certainly agree. I'm no fan of Rubio and think he is only being courted because of being from Florida and might (very debatable) bring in some Latino voters. For the reasons you gave and being very inexperienced I wouldn't be sold on him as a good choice. We already have a...

    Romney a nice guy?

    If we keep going, the folks waiting on their Obamabucks will be screaming when they don't get them. I do agree that people should get their unemployment checks because they paid into the system. When what they paid in is burnt up, that should be the end. Same with social security. I don't...

    Landstar Agents

    Working as a outside carrier (Panther) we have done quite a few loads for different agents that we have obtained ourselves. All have went well and paid very decent.

    Supposed non force dispatch.

    Thats what happens when the carrier is too dumb to understand the difference between a independent contractor and a employee. That likely is a breach of your contract.
