boy can I relate.....getting old....is a fatal error.....LOL

I understand ...I do....I think the Active/Roadrunner model is very efficient for customers knowing where their freight is as in JD and now GM ...as Caterpillar is to Fedex and Whirlpool are to Panther...almost exclusive service with very limited brokering out....the lessening of load board...

When I was in Canada a policy 10 yrs ago was pretty darned close to 10K for cross border coverage...about 6k without....the US I think is just catching up to the real cost of the risks...while competition seems to be always good....there is the times where now is the time to reflect actual...

i mean outfits like Bounce, Trinity, Ryder, Penske ....do fine it appears trucking has had the onion appearance.....many layers to peel back....and it is still growing... when I see loads being brokered out 3-4 times before the money gets to me....that indicates skimming to me and waste of time...

keep in mind the replacement value rider....don't over value your van....I see some that do...that makes a whack of difference.... I have NO replacement rider on my million mile van....as what they charge works out to almost $1,000 per every $10,000 of coverage.... I am just hoping to hit a very...
