    Oil continues it decline

    Fuel cost is the reason for all the lay offs if you look at the big picture. It all started with truck drivers. I said this a few years back. When truck drivers don't eat meals in the truck stops and so on because they are trying to save money for fuel. Then all the ladies that work at the truck...

    Dan May has good Truck Music

I like the songs he has called " that one song" and "Fate said nevermind" I was hoping EO would get him to play at the Expo. Here is a...

    Willington, Ohio would be a nice new hub for FedEx Express. Then they could take all the business that DHL had.

    Who is paying good FSC these days?

    Panther gives 100% of what is charged to the customer to their Owners. FedEx has a FSC program where you get a set amount base on what the cost of fuel each week. Those are paid on loaded miles and all okayed deadhead miles.

    Short loads are they worth it?

    This whole post is about not getting a 1st out on loads under 75 miles. I did a load last week and it was 71 miles. Thinking that I could take the 1st out home and go out of service like and still keep my 1st out when I came back in service. Wrong you lose it when you go out of service and you...

    Short loads are they worth it?

    No Panther is a very good company. I'm just set in my FedEX ways I guess. I was just pointing out what I see. I will say that at FedEx a "less than 75" is a less than 75. It's not base on how much money is paid to the truck. Thats why FedEx can cover the short loads because they pay well and...

    Short loads are they worth it?

    You both hit the nail on the head. FedEx is is rewarding you by putting you at the top of the board and paying you a fair rate to boot.

    Short loads are they worth it?

    Phil We know loads at FedEx under 75 miles pays very well. I have done my fare share of less than 75 runs at FedEx. At FedEx your not on a flat rate either. No Phil most people don't do runs for a reward they do it for money but at FedEx you are rewarded for doing a less than 75 mile run...

    Short loads are they worth it?

    Phil I'm talking about the company should never have to say no to the customer. The company has to make it worth the driver to do a short load. Short load shouldn't be based on money they should be based on miles. If you offer me a 71 mile load that picks up at 14:00 and after I do the load...
