We have heard this over and over again and you are right! The fuel ticket will show the cash price usually and no discount. If you want to see the discount you have to log onto the discount cards page. We are now using Comdata with Landstar: Log onto Landstar and go to the money tab, click...

I received this from Terry O'Connell on the T-Chek System and how to find how much your fuel costs: Determining Actual Price Paid for Fuel when using a T-Chek card FedEx Custom Critical Contractors can obtain this information in the following manner. Drivers for a fleet owner must have the...

This is interesting reading about the history of Landstar, the present situation, and Landstars business model. It is long but interesting. What are the risks faced by Landstar? - Market Realist

We just left BCO days and we have attended a lot of special events and NOTHING compares to BCO days. Anyone that missed going to BCO days really missed out and never have I seen that many drivers and I believe there were over 2000 treated this well by everyone. From the time we arrived and...

Final word at BCO days was NO DVIR unless a defect or going to Canada! I think everyone is finally on the same page and that is good news for us.

When I listened to the Safety Thursday call they said we were still required to send in a DVIR due to the fleet going into Canada.

I would suggest you shop around as your credit score is going to dictate what is your best rate. Also experience in the industry will affect your interest rate. What size truck are you thinking of purchasing? Will you go through a dealer? - some have financing Purchasing New or Used also has...

I did call Rockford after hours to make them aware of the situation.

To say there is not a learning curve at Landstar would be ludicrous and here is an example: We received a call from the customer (not agent) in the evening canceling the load that picked up at 8 in the morning... we were about 60 miles away. What do we do act as adults who can think and stay...

JSudlow I think you brought up a issue that spurred great discussion! Good Job

Cheri I did not say it was ethical and my opinion of this practice is really ugly and I have been very vocal about it. Why a company lets a sales person take money away from a driver that has no say in the matter sends me through the roof. I think it slows the practice down a lot when the...

With FSC and FedEx last I knew it was FSC was paid on ALL authorized miles loaded or empty. That to me is the huge difference between get paid 100% of FSC when a customer pays the FSC and getting paid FSC on all miles whether or not the customer pays. Leo is nearly accurate but the...

On FSC and getting 100% I have to disagree with some on this issue. We have been on the 100% plan and it depends on the customer, FSC is a mandatory charge and not all customers pay FSC. When the sales people are pushing a sale one of the ways they discount the load is to tell the customer...

What are you going to drive? Are you in a straight truck or going into a semi? If you are going to drive a straight truck I have never heard of what you are talking about. With what I have seen done is get a Class B and all the endorsements including air brakes and then sometimes you can be...
