    Cargo Van Controversial idea?

    I guess my point is...what the ALL mile rate works out to?.....$1.00 a mile quickly diminishes when you tack on 75 more miles DH IE: 500 mile for $500 now tack on 75 more DH you are now at .86

    Cargo Van Controversial idea?

    I thought Bolt was a % carrier?.....I think the Bolt recruiter has quoted you a high average there....and No Names post right after yours confirms that... and now you need that higher rate because you just dropped 4-5 mpg dumping the 06...OR is the 15/16 the new 4 bangers with the much better...

    The latest new Load One custom

    I don't know..the standard automotive 45x48 bin is about 35" or 70" stacked....my older sprinter is just 70 high and its a tight squeeze but they do go in....I am thinking because the top one sits down a bit on the bottom bin... Makes no sense...anything over 48" won;t go on a CV

    The Trump Card...

    I agree Sessions did the best thing he thought for himself at the time to stay away from Conflict ... any way you spin it ... this was almost pre ordained to happen

    The Trump Card...

    Nothing... he literally told Sessions only reason he got the job was not for his ability to do said job but to just back up the boss

    Well turnover only creates work for recruiters... as you see new ines being hired at other carriers as they add more vehicles... I mean why add new recruiters I you have a hiring freeze?

    The latest new Load One custom

    IMO anything that is less then 15 mpg is a loser .... as not every load will pay what is required to make this work ... even straight trucks are working cheap these days and they are getting 10-11 mpg. Again it's just 1 opinion :)

    Respectfully geo the last few years you weren't really expediting 100%...you were more a local regional driver...

    Cargo Van Controversial idea?

    you run for a carrier that promises $1.00 for a sprinter regardless of load size? or do you get the dollar on a sprinter sized load?

    Cargo Van Controversial idea?

    your living in the past Geo..I remember those days of actually getting paid for those functions....but sadly most of them accessory charges are no more or you are begging for them....and .90? most flat rate carriers are now at .75 - .85 for a CV ...even % rates are down you'd be hard pressed...
