    Today's Fleet Owners

    Holding my grounds. by the time those trucks are fully paid for and ready to be sold or traded in, the Owner already made a good ROI. 7 times over. i already gave away one good working truck, after it finished it's business cycle. i could not care less. wanna be my friend ? :)

    Today's Fleet Owners

    the question is not WHY they do it, but what are the result of such action ? AND is if lawful ! if the fleets are giving a copy of the full sign contract to the drivers to keep in the truck, it MIGHT hold grounds. but if those fleets are keeping some of that cheese to themselves, then the...

    Today's Fleet Owners

    don't know what was your personal experience, but from what i witness, those vans are carefully monitors, and a nice piece of technology. a carrier can no longer hold TSA certificate for freight going on passengers aircraft without participating in the full TSA program. if you ask me, the...

    Today's Fleet Owners

    O'h i see, so that's why 'some large expedite carriers' are in bed with large fleet owners... you know, better PPM/FSC/dispatch favoritism,Ext. but don't tell anyone just yet...it's the industry most kept secret. and i always thought it was simply to screw over the little guy, guess i was...

    As an 'Owner' you should know that driving your 'Owner' broke is pricing 'yourself' out of the market. a load to a bad area can be average up. a load to nowhere is a per load operations in the Expedite Rssetta Stoned. for all of you L1/JD cheerleaders, better save your cheese . - a...

    What are you looking for from a carrier?

    fuel advances : no needs . Carrier provided fuel card : a carrier is expected to negotiate fuel discounts for the fleet, or to join a national flee card. however , a carrier can pay a higher %tage if a contractor is buying it's own fuel, as the carrier upfront's costs & cash flow are effected...

    New Venture

    Good luck Steve, hope you'll do well. in all the research that i have done over they years, i DID NOT found Expedite to be a best place for a tractor team, and definitely not the best paying job for a solo tractor. simply put, the loads don't pay enough . expediting the E division sure makes...
