    Key West FL do expediters actually reside there?!?!?! bahahaha thats some serious deadhead. I'd say its the equivalent of living in Denver CO. Minimal deadhead for me folks. 200-300. If you end up in a bad area cut your losses and take a vacation or hope that you have friends in the 300-500...

    Best ac unit is the COLEMAN MACH 8 Polar Cub 9200 BTU for less then $600 currently on sale. Can easily be powered with a 2000w generator. Lowest profile available which means less drags and better MPG!

    Time at red lights,

    Smart phones but not smart stops lights, if vehicles aren't coming from both directions the light should change green instead of making you wait 30 seconds to 2 min. Red lights are make or break, wheels turning are better then being stopped no matter the speed when you have deadlines to meet!

    Where Are Rates Really?

    But god forbid anyone mention any rates or names of carriers, it will just kill your wallet when one more driver signs up to drive a cargo van for the same carrier as you. :):rolleyes:

    Would you take Higher Rate and less Miles or More Miles and Lower Rate?
