400,000 miles ish I got mine from a plumbing company that I suspect left it running in the winter for their entire shift every day

That's the federal minimum. Broker minimum, and load boards is 1 million and 100,000 cargo (or they won't pick you) I have 3 million canadian $$ and the cargo insurance is supplied by my carrier as I carry up to 2 million in aviation parts

Somebody I know (not me of course) needs a placard holder before 4:30 am. Dollar store to the rescue

Good timing for the hazmat loads to start need $$$ Way higher rates

I hope for your sake you have your 1 million liability and 100,000 cargo insurance quoted out, and you weren't leaving it till the end of the application...

Sounds like you have at least some idea what's going on. A google search will find a myriad of companies that will take care of the BOC-3, pick one with the features you like. I'd lean toward a yearly membership and not a one time fee, it is possible someone will notify you someday with...

One of my years bigger cheques coming (off 3 deliveries :p) Vermont was pretty. Although I spent an hour and 20 minutes there. Kid was happy, I made it back early. Found out my particular sprinter is limited to 79 actual mph, or 127 kph (:tongueclosed:) no wonder my mileage is good...

My only thought is, if you can't wade thru that website, you probably aren't interested enough in this business. Even those that are, some are finding it tough right now

You'd make a great straight man, Moot Taking it as a real question I'd say the last option - no van - has been left out, and with rising minimum wage its a valid option. If it's a must, Nissan of course. They last forever. Both choices limit loads, but Nissan at least has a high roof. Unless...

Rate confirmation. Something those leased to a carrier don't usually see

Fixed it. Took 5 hours, afaik onky 1 cylinder black death. I'll post my exploits later in truck talk, got some cool chinese tools that made things go smooth.

Which is 14' inside right? Same as the "extended" from ram or ford... Canada sucks for new vehicles. Was looking at a transit with a 16' box, diesel...$784 a month for 60 months with $5000 down, and you don't even get to keep it. Lease

Herd thin faster please. I haven't had a real job since 1993

When did the Westinghouse come out? Look on amazon type sites for user reviews, try and get a sense of the failure rate / longevity Personally I think Yamaha would be a close second to Honda, meaning longest life

Aren't the well off well off simply because they decide they deserve it?

Even last year I didn't have to look at rates or cost per mile. I just said yes or no depending on what I was up to, because I knew whatever the price was, was higher than I needed This year? :dead:

We should all compare notes in 5 years and see what happens to everyone's pet strategies. :p

Maybe I'm unique, but refusing a low dollar run most times gets a higher $$ callback later... I used to do a run for fuel money, just so I didn't have to deadhead. Home 12 hours later. It was a happy day when I stopped Remember Morse Tool, Ken?

If the salary isn't in your cost per mile what's your lowest bid? For me it would look very different with salary out. My van is paid for and averages 22 mpg loaded, I could undercut even the "eastern europeans" lol (why ppl think eastern europeans are to blame I dunno, but its kinda funny,)

I actually got a load offer yesterday and today both from my main company. I knew they read my posts lol...twice in a week, back to back, and they know I'm out for service after covering the holiday weekend I'm at a doctor's appointment for my daughter, and am going to fix the sprinter before I...
