    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    We each own our business and each of us have our own CPM so your cheap freight will make me money and my cheap freight will make someone else money. Knowing my cost per mile will keep me in business and I do not need to know what your cost per mile is. As business owners there is no sticking...

    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    Very interesting post Bubblehead and one we have had many times with out OTR friends. Henry has said often that Expediting and Oversize did the exact same thing told the world about all the money to be made in their prospective fields. The same thing is happening right now in the DoD world...

    I guess I need to start watching this thread closer! We were sitting about 4 trucks down from Mr. and Mrs. Layoutshooter did not know it! Luckily we had time to have coffee together before we needed to go get loaded. Sure would have been nice to have supper with them last night!

    Greg the thing that I like to keep in mind is that the people just coming into this do not know about the "Good Old Days" so they look at this with a fresh view. The bottom can drop out of anything at anytime. Anyone is trucking knows that we are in an iffy world and you need to be financially...

    new to expediting

    Reading the forums, asking questions of drivers, talking to recruiters and then trying make sense of all that you have heard is how you are going to make a informed decision. It appears to me that is exactly what motort31 is trying to do. Just because you make more money somewhere else does...

    MATS roll call

    MATS is a must for us! The best way we know to see and touch the new technology. We always learn how to improve our business at MATS and also the access to these vendors for us is priceless. We can spend hours comparing products and learning what will affect our business on down the road.

    MATS - Louisville Truck Show

    So LDB does that mean you also signed up for the walk? I think all of us Expediters need to have something to distinguish ourselves! I could see there being more expediters on this walk then there are truckload drivers even though we are such a small segment of the trucking world.

    NO NO NO I do not want to remember the nightmarish vision of seeing you walking down the isles last year at the Expo! Give us a few more months to build up our resistance. Do you have your outfit picked out though to walk with us at MATS?

    Hey Jeannie the only way you get any "Creams" is to WALK or at least start the walk! Sign up and help Cheri get around! I know Cheri is not a morning person. Hey neither is Bob but he has also signed up for the walk after a little arm twisting!

    Piper1 we went through a lot of fuel filters before the problem was fixed. We had mechanics ride with us and not a single code was ever thrown. We were basically stuck with either changing parts or waiting for whatever to break.

    EnGINE

    We had a problem similar to what you are saying but we had many more miles on our C7. The smoke was white and when it would happen there was a lot of it. We had it into several dealers before the Huey Pump finally failed and then they had to find the problem. The engine would still run but...
