Compensate delays? Just like Ford NLM loads? Best wishes! All kidding aside, hope your new truck comes in soon. That Chevy has been one lucky SOB many times! Better leave some of that luck to its next owner, for real!! ;)

Have you been to Ford in Claycomo? If you hold a conversation with those jugheads you'd understand why "his" transit is lost!!

They pay their brokered loads quick, according to Sally. That's awesome in our book.

LOL!! I am! HeII, you even MET me in MI once and STILL signed on. WTH is up with that?!?! Can't run you off with a stick! I guess it was the Tim Horton's. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

True dat! Yeah, that $40k is steep. Sally & I are a "mom & pop". Dining room converted to office. Only 11 drivers but we don't approach the same expense ratio at all as $40K per month for 30 drivers. o_O Now, add in driver payroll and yes. That's a number that's believable or way low for...

I'm guessing part of that $40k per month was some admin payroll. Payroll and benefits are expenses. He was probably not just referring to rent, power bills & corporate massages. LOL!!!! Not defending, just stating a fact.

He said "I'm going home!!" but money talks too. Maybe we snag a Mitchell or SF to Dickinson, RC or Bismarck??? Never know??

Yeah, we've been to 4 of their plants several times but that's the first time to that one in SD.

Ugh. Run, man, run!!

Give it 6 months. ;)

Yep. "The Quickening of the Expedite Evolution". Sounds like a documentary.

Ken, it's not like it used to be just 1 year ago. Or 2.

16 loads for 75 trucks in a week? That's not ideal, especially for a carrier the size of LS. We did 23 loads this week for 11 trucks and it was a pretty rough week. At least for some. And they weren't even ALL available. Your loyalty to a carrier for 10 years shouldn't be rewarded with...

Advil liquigels. Two before a day on the rides and two after. Works every time. Even helps with our herniated disk.

It's certainly NOT a nationality issue. We lose bids all the time to brokers that say they "have to go with the absolute cheapest bid" and that also REQUIRE the type of insurance that, supposedly, "these Russians" don't have. That theory being the biggest reason rates are in the crapper is...

YOU DID!!!

That IS a good looking professional truck there!!

HeII, I never took you out?!?! :eek:

OVM didn't like the first 6 pitches we threw yesterday. :rolleyes: And the last 3-4 just didn't work. I guess we were too high on those. Still at it, though.
