    Los Angeles at a standstill for Sprinters and Cargo vans

    I'll be here all this coming week! Would prefer to get out Tuesday or Wednesday but the 8th will work for me. LA is the busiest city for freight on the West Coast although I heard there was a sprinter load going from Fremont to NC yesterday, wish I was closer :) On 4/22 there were 4+ 1000+ mile...

    I heard some customers were lost recently. Maybe they are hoping to gain a few back with the transformation.

    Los Angeles at a standstill for Sprinters and Cargo vans

    It is friday, do you want to run low and get a load or sleep in the sprinter for next 5 days?! Not same amenities as a $150K CLASS A. I'm near the beach now trying to beat the heat guess you couldn't do that in a Straight :)

    Los Angeles at a standstill for Sprinters and Cargo vans

    It's not me here it is my carrier, how many times have I mentioned I'm on with a carrier that doesn't charge QC fees or have forced dispatch, for now it works but after 30 days I'm looking into running for someone else. The rates are low because vans are flooding the market, you have no idea who...

    Los Angeles at a standstill for Sprinters and Cargo vans

    Just to show you how low rates are $1850 wouldn't take a 2200 mile run today out of LA. My second bid was 1700 but it was too late by the time carrier called back customer.. Only going to run 30 more days at these rates then will look for a higher rate. ;) yeee haw

    Los Angeles at a standstill for Sprinters and Cargo vans

    I run with a carrier that I'll be done with here in short time... they should call themselves bid board express. ;)

    Is it time to get out of expediting.....

    I wish mercedes would invent a jumbo sprinter that could get 20-25 mpg and be able to haul 5-7k lbs 6-12 skids :) That would suck for straights though... it will never happen though one of these will work...

    Is it time to get out of expediting.....

    Expediting must be coming to a concluding point for vans... who will make it, who will give up and go home ? May awaits... this month will certainly determine much more. :)

    Slowest month in 2 years

    Do you guys think Monday - Wednesday will be busy this coming week since it's the end of the month? I'm sitting in LA and hoping for a Sprinter load somewhere East or TX-Chicago-FL. I'm wondering if I should bid low and try to get out in fear of Thursday and Friday not producing any loads. Lets...

    Slowest month in 2 years

    What kind of truck are you in? I told everyone 2 months ago I wanted to get a strait and they all said stick to the sprinter so that is what I did.... lets see if May can rebound. I heard a rumor straight were only getting 1.50 a mile, that is like a quarter to 30 cents more then sprinter after...

    Minimum wage may go up to $10.10 in some state.

    Bring it up another 10.10 and I'll park the sprinter and hang the keys up. :)

    Showers

    I carry a stack of about 50+ TA fuel receipts with me at all times. Anytime I need a shower I just go up the clerk after I've fueled and say I'd like a shower with that... (25-27 gal tank) and it always works. I get a discount through my carrier at TA. Last fill was $3.60 a gal with the $1.50...
