    Or, "they" could have been associated with Sylectus LONG before the truck minimum requirement. Careful. Not all super-small carriers are freight-w-h-o-r-e-s. Nor do they bid 50 or 60 CPM on loads. Nor so they carry less than $1M loan and $100K cargo. Heck, some of them even LOVE the industry and...

    It is sad that a 90.9 CPM bid doesn't keep a load on the ground for an expedite. What is the average car price? Average profit margin on autos? I used to be tool most carriers ended up with about a 10% net margin. Wonder what a 3PL markup is on a bid? They have payroll and insurance too, but...

    14?!?! No. Just because there are 14 listed on Sylectus doesn't make it 14. Between the carriers that don't update their trucks and the fact that Sylectus isn't the only way to cover a Laredo load. Every time I've been to Laredo (or McAllen) there have been at least 50-150 vans, Sprinters &...

    Shower audio...

    LOL!! I listen to music on my phone in there. NO ONE wants to hear me sing in there, for sure. Of course, they don't want to hear some of my music either. Waylon to the Gorillaz.

    True. There's certainly not that many expeditors. But it sure seems that way when you drive down that little service road at Walmart in town. LOL!!

    Half a million miles, how many more?

    I think so. Lots of oil service. No off-brand fuel. And I DON'T let it downshift at 74 mph when I hit a steep one. I slow down. No one needs a thrown rod or spun bearing!!

    With 350+ trucks in Laredo at any point, I WILL discount just to get the hell out of there. Same with McAllen, El Paso and Nogales, for the record. Ok, maybe not Nogales.

    Wow!! That's great. Makes my 340K seem like chump change. LOL!!

    June locations and did you see that flying DR unit?

    Shorty from Tullahoma to Hopkinsville. I imagine a few of you may have been offered this one. They seemed to struggle with it. Me = Team player.

    It's certainly possible. But a broker confirmed with me last week their bond was exhausted. That's usually a bad sign all the way around.

    The dreaded "Misfire".....

    Pretty much every single time as long as I allow it to operating temp and it sits at least a minute or two.

    The dreaded "Misfire".....

    I like that theory most. I think it "clears" too quick to be a vapor lock. Thanks!!! Any other opinions? I won't be doing anything with it until this weekend at the earliest.

    Hopefully Laredo works for you. I think there have been a good many loads posted out of there this week so far.
