    Looking for a quality, inexpensive fleet tracking option

    We're currently on MacroPoint. It's not expensive for small fleets. But negotiate! Nothing is cast in stone except your service contract, apparently. And MacroPoint is used by tons of carriers. It's not $5 a trip for carriers. That's the broker price.

    What happened to Eclipse Expediting?

    And just like most others, this is a multi-faceted story.

    What happened to Eclipse Expediting?

    Yeah, it's gotta really be difficult sifting through the many, many differences in carriers. What may be important to one driver means not a dang thing to another. We don't have driver showers at our house, although we've offered a shower and a spare bed several times. Not yet taken up on...

    What happened to Eclipse Expediting?

    One of our guys did the math, and shared his numbers with me. It was amazing how very close the all mile numbers were as well as total costs. Every company is different though. And this year's market is certainly much different than last year's.

    Preface...... I have permission to post this from Michael High, owner of MDH Expediting. Mike owns MDH and has been handling the brokerage side of Eclipse Expediting for quite some time. There have been "issues" lately at Eclipse that ended in the carrier side of Eclipse shutting down and...

    You could take the load they just posted, offering $0.69 CPM TOTAL rate!! No, not out of TX or south FL either. Ugh!!! For a TEAM.

    What happened to Eclipse Expediting?

    Eclipse was probably moving plenty of loads themselves. But in the grand scheme of just how many loads move, Eclipse is probably not a lot more than a blip on the radar. This is a market correction. That is normal. The market is starting to pay more attention to how carriers are insuring and...

    I followed your tutorial to the letter and had a flawless install. Many good night's sleep with my fantastic fan. Until I got off the road and sold my van to a painter. :)!!!

    Is it slow all over ???

    Just IMO, the average expedite shipment is just too big or heavy for vans and Sprinters. There are a lot of van/Spr loads but a ton of small & large straight loads. The cost per part or per skid is pretty expensive to expedite on CVs and Sprinters. But necessary when either a line is about to...

    Is it slow all over ???

    Good morning Detroit!!! Makes one wonder why there's usually only 20-40 units at the Detroiter sometimes. This is just the closest 450 units. Sorry, only 150 fit per page.

    Love it when the same broker/carriers that profess "say no to cheap freight" award their loads to the cheapest bidders that bid under 85 cpm total rate.

    Isn't this the closest we got you to home loaded? 287 I think. I'm sure you've been loaded closer, just not yet by CE.

    April "Rabbit rabbit rabbit"

    Ok, so I may have just stuck my foot in my mouth, with a broker.........again. "No prob. Understood, man. Maybe if the cheapest truck wasn't always the winner [of your loads] & a little bit more of the quality of the carrier went into the decision. But who am I to say? We'll try the next...
