    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    Actually, it's my right. That may be much of your problem right there. :D

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    No it doesn't. The right to choose is the right to choose. Anti-abortion conservatives "always demands everyone adhere to their beliefs and demands rather than choosing for themselves." Claiming it's different because it's a third party is nothing more than a rationalization for getting an...

    Which load boards actually have sprinter loads?

    Sylectus is mostly overflow. If there were actual expedite load boards out there, don't you think those brokers would be using those instead? The reality is, unlike the load boards out there in general trucking, expediting doesn't have those.

    That was my first thought, too, a marginal fuel filter that should be changed.

    Which load boards actually have sprinter loads?

    Expedited loads are by definition emergency freight. You don't put emergency freight on a load board in the hopes that someone will see it. You make a phone call or send an email or notify potential carriers in some other way that you have a load that needs to be covered right now. Any expedited...

    Well, I'll never have maple syrup again.

    Why is s-e-x in the swear filter?

    For another day or so, until the filters get tweaked and updated. But it's probably best to keep the language civil regardless of whether the filters catch it or not.

    Who could I run for (with under cdl truck)?

    Uhm, dood, if you can turn it down, it's not forced. "Hours will be reset to zero..." is very, very different from "Contract will be cancelled..." It would be nice to be able to make decisions without having to deal with any negative consequences, but neither life nor expediting, works that way.

    Why is s-e-x in the swear filter?

    If Puritanism was the cause, :censoredsign: would be censored, probably.

    WHO DO YOU LOVE?

    Yeah, IN GENERAL, you'll sit most weekends in a cargo van. There are places where it's a little more likely, like Chicago, but for the most part you can count on not having a load over the weekend.

    Who could I run for (with under cdl truck)?

    As much as what? As much as other carriers? As much as you want? As much as they used to? XPO, Nations and Bolt are all good carriers that move their straight trucks about as much as any other carrier. Same with Panther, Load 1, C&M, PTL, FedEx, Landstar.

    Question on driver pay...

    That's the thing, there really isn't enough money in cargo vans to split it between driver and owner. Neither one can make enough. As for turning down loads, you can go broke in a hurry by taking every load. You sometimes have to be picky. Not every load is profitable. And, when you pay a...

    Question on driver pay...

    Standard in this business is a 60/40 split with the 60 paying for fuel and tolls (usually the driver), and whoever is getting the 60% also gets the fuel surcharge (FSC). The 40% goes to the other party (usually the fleet owner). So, on a $1000 load, $600 goes to the driver and $400 goes to the...

    Question on driver pay...

    So you're paying 60% of 70%. Wow

    Question on driver pay...

    If you don't have a written contract signed by you and the driver, that's probably considered wrong. Not sure what you mean by "turned down without permission." Either the driver is an independent contractor making the decisions, or they're your employee. If you take 30% off the top and then...

    Why is s-e-x in the swear filter?

    With this new software, when the censor filters got turned on, the default filters were used. I'm not sure why flange is even in there at all. There are several others that really don't need filtering, and a few that need to be added.
