How would you like to get up on a beautiful Saturday morning, go walk your dog and come home to find you were sold to Panther?

RC? Can someone help me here?

Don't worry about what rate others are running at. Accept loads at the rate you need to be profitable. Loads going to poor locations, get some extra money up front, be prepared to get out at a low rate or don't take the load. It really isn't that complicated. Either you are profitable or you...

Yeah, that or they may have worked for it.

The Australian government subsidizes most of the cost of prescription drugs. Help Joe or Bernie get elected in 2020 and you can get your HIV drug for $8.00. Probably get the latest iPhone and a GED for free. Let's all try to make America even greater but without the MAGA hats.

I agree it's all up to you. I have no experience with full synthetic oil My first two vans I ran regular old Valvoline dinosaur oil and averaged 5000-6000 miles per oil change. I sold it with 820,000 miles on the original engine and it went past 900,000 miles that I know off. My current...

Define wealthy. Can you put a number such as annual gross income to your definition? My standard of living has improved over the last 2½ years. As for people living paycheck to paycheck, that's a common occurrence no matter what the annual income. Its more of a spending beyond one's means...

Hopefully the "Forgotten Democrats" will remember it was the Republicans under Trump that improved their standard of living.

Cutting back to two martinis at lunch would help.

Stay inside the 250 mile radius if that's where the customers are. When you are offered a load outside that area, ask for extra money up front to get you back toward St. Louis.

May Saint Expeditus guide you and give both of you strength for your final earthly load. .

Likewise! I've met with that guy you are married to a few times, but never you.

I'm on a fixed rate per mile and a variable fsc. Currently running at .94/mile including fsc and only .14/Deadhead mile. This for a cargo van.

Aerocell CW on a GM cutaway chassis.

58%, 70% it could be all the same. The question is, 58 or 70 percent of what? When I ran percentage my carrier had published tariffs. I got 58.5% of the published tariff. But that was the late 1990's. A different era.

Don't blame Amazon for setting low rates. As long as there are truckers willing to run for low rates, low rates will continue.

My Transit sucks when it comes to washing and waxing. These long and tall vans have way too much painted acreage. When I sold my 2004 Chevy the body was still in excellent shape and certainly didn't show that the van had 820,000 miles on it. Wax your van a couple times a year with a quality...

" Do I have to say more?" Certainly not. Your experts have rendered me fingerless. Back in the day I read science fiction, Future Schlock, Micro Millennium etc. While their broad cast net captured the essence of their predictions, rarely did they hit the mark, especially with timing.

Wow! I can't believe I'm the first to post here in 2019 and it's only late April! I finally completed my Staymetrics annual survey. Notice the word annual is underlined. As for the survey, most questions applied more toward the truckload side of the transportation industry. Less dealt with...
