Phil Many people took it as an attack. We all know you are a diehard FedEx guy. Telling someone to "get over it" isn't making you look any better. Can't we all just get along? I know it's getting old.

Dynamic Vehicle Allocation, it's the system that FedEx uses.

But the lawn still needs mowed.

Why should someone get a 1st out for a load over 75 miles. 1st outs are something that shouldn't be given to a driver just to take a load. You have to draw a line somewhere. You as a contractor have a choice, you either take the load or turn it down. We leave that up to our drivers. I can't...

Sounds like you are the owner. :)

Pat It can work out good if you give it a chance. Over the years in this business I really didn't like change that much. When FedEx rolled out DVA I wasn't for it at all. As time went on, I seen that we made more money with DVA and loved it. Its kinda sounds a little like what Panther may be...

When they do that your not a contractor, your an employee. Roberts Express did away with putting people out of service, after you turned down two loads in a row. I may be wrong but I think they was taken to court over it. DaveKC and Steve can remember this.

Good post Steve. I had a truck on with TST that got .80 a mile for all U.S. miles, .90 a mile for loads going in and out of Canada. I ran alot more miles, but I still made money. Things will get better. Steve you remember how 1995 was?

I guess you could say your carriers are Mr Slate. lol

Most people would do that anyway. I know I would have it done to Fedex specs. Why spend money on thing that may not be needed.

I would have to agree with you Leo. All I can say is if you want to upgrade your van to a BR unit you can. If FedEx has the need to use you they will.

Good post, they have been doing that for years. I guess they still haven't learned.

Panther, Fedex, Tri-state and the list goes on, does business with NLM. NLM is not owned by any expedite company. Each company has departments that bids on NLM loads. Just because they have a department for NLM doesn't mean they work for NLM or Panther owns NLM. They have a department for Toyota...

Tricia loves Texas too, Dave and Leo. Our one truck is called Tex, or the Texas truck. We drove down about 3 years ago to pick it up from the people we bought it from. We picked it up in Fort Worth and stayed the night. Took Tricia and the boys out to a nice Mexican place. I hope you folks find...

Tony didn't say the 31th he said the 30th. Survivor2 is the one that said the 31th. lol but its okay :)

Wow. I was reading it, there are some things in there that people need to read. Thanks for the information. Time to look at your lease people after you read it.
