Again,what does that have to do with Turtle ?

I disagree. What has Turtle done, in your opinion, to negatively affect the site ? The industry is in the crapper for some, but that's not Turtle's fault.

There is no black balling in this industry. Once you are black balled you will know it. You can always open a gym.

17 loads today ? Are they bidding or yankin his chain ? Maybe he needs a better class of pimps.

The way he cuts rates he belongs in a van. Seriously, can't you find a legit carrier to lease on to that will work with you and your real business ? With your other skill-sets can't you find a real job, part time ? You're over qualified for a van and would miss your creature comforts. Go from...

Reefers are often used to protect from freezing. And humidity control. Set at 42 or 70 degrees is very common.

Oh,I so love this story. Will you tell it to me again Uncle Phil ? Will ya ? Will ya ?

Geo does work as a consultant. I wonder if he'd be good at doing the analysis and I wonder what he charges. Has anyone on here consulted him ? I talked to him years ago about going to Ceva and he seems to be a good guy. I never used him as a paid consultant. .

Wow ! Rags left the computer long enough to have children ! Oh yeah, that was pre-EO.

I like how it helps me learn grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, and spelling.

Just don't be lazy and follow people without due diligence. Making the move Eddie,Turtle,or Linda made may not work for you. Because you are not Eddie,Turtle,or Linda.

It's NOT moving,silly.

I understand the higher the value the higher the cost. Does the first $50,000 of coverage cost the same as the third $50,000 of coverage ? Am I less of a risk driving my own unit than units 2 thru 5 that will have I/C drivers in them ?

I see that in a fleet like Load-1. Was wondering how that would apply to a small fleet like Dynamites. Same concept ? Thinking about going from one to five reefers.

Are you guessing that if a $50,000 truck is $215 per month, that a $150,000 truck would be $645 per month ? It'd be a good learning point to see how close that formula is. And to learn the cost of that vehicle being driven by the owner vs being put into a fleet setting.

Reefer owners at Fedex get ice in their Koolade.

I chuckled when Skyline referred to the load board as "candy land". Really, Candyland at flat rates ? I remember sitting in Dallas on my birthday. I'm in a D. A B load comes to me at $1.60. I turn it down so a B can have it. No B takes it, so I take it when it comes around again. I like B loads...

Deville, they could have kept their mouths shut, past tense, or could keep their mouths shut. End of grammar lesson. Skyline, Caffee is a so-so debater. It's been known for years that Phil is a Masterdebater.

Opel- don't you start a CIS is trying to rip me off thread, about every six months ? Ask Turtle if you can qualify for a sticky. Shelly and her crew have always done me right. **Edit: and she's done right by the majority of people on here that have been fortunate enough to deal with her.

Geo, are you saying you did like $140,000 on 80,000 miles last year ? Or like $80,000 on 80,000 miles which came out to $1.75 for all loaded miles ? There's lots of confusion on here due to lack of consistency in how numbers are reported. To the carrier or to the truck ? Loaded miles or all...
