I am surprised that this thread has went has long as it has. Lets cut to the chase. The reality is, it is a liability issue. Doesn't mean a swap happens every time, but it is minimizing risks. Nothing hard to understand. But just in case. If you carry say 1 mil in liability and kill someone...

Not sure I understand your question? They have Canadian only drivers.

Since I don't drive or own a van, this would be my observation with absolutely no facts. I do believe it is a insurance and or liability issue that drives this. Why? Because in most cases, they are paying a third party to do the swap. I don't see a reason that Panther or another carrier...

Do a search for load board type threads. This has been written on extensively in the past. That additionally is why you see few responses.

Wonder if this should be moved to the loading dock since it is a comedy piece?

Biggest thing some do is "ASSUMING" something.

Reputation might be the first place to start?:eek:

They are getting a bill. Hasn't arrived yet as they are still adding to it.

10-4..............the "lucky" part was in reference to a member that six months ago said it didn't exist. You are spot on with your observations.

I don't want to say one is better than the other because most situations are unique. Just as the guy that works directly with the shipper, has little value to me because in my case, they likely can't support a fleet of trucks. You have to make sure you are looking at ALL of the pieces in the...

I can't say I am seeing one either.

Leo I am glad there isn't a picture to go with that title.:eek:

Are you saying you have recieved a good ROI?:D

Good and accurate post. Be careful using that word "luck" too many times. There is a few that say it doesn't exist.:D

Since we had our own at one time, I think leasing to a carrier that lets me find my own loads is the best combination for us. No longer do we have to worry about DOT audits, dealing with a drug program, collecting freight bills, log audits, and the list goes on. The costs outweigh the gains...

Too many again are trying to complicate the simple. She is broke with staggering attorney fees, and is looking for a way out to pay them while she can still draw a crowd to benefit herself financially. Nothing wrong with that. But.....as a viable candidate for a higher office, I am not seeing...

I agree that there likely won't be much change with NLM. They do however have a considerable drop in their load count primarily due to the sagging auto industry.

Busy. About on par with last year. Seems less freight overall, but less trucks to compete with. So..........so far so good.

At the end of the day, I think Obama is a very likeable guy for many. But I believe my glasses are crystal clear as to whether I see any benefit to his social/fiscal programs. The best thoughts or plans are fine until you have to figure out WHO is going to pay for them. That top "5" percent they...
