Well, in that case isn't that bad, if you don't have to pay for anything. Yet, I'd rather go for 1099 than 1040...

How about the most expensive one, PA? ;)

Kinda ridiculous 800-1600 miles per week for a team... you better try to drive a cargo van, for sure you'll get at least 1800 miles/wk driving solo...

Congratulations!

I don't know if I should say that sucks big time or that we're lucky for not being in Europe, where almost every E.U. country has toll freeways. I went once to Paris and from the Luxembourg border to Paris I paid almost as much I paid for the fuel. And I was driving just a regular car...

I had my son driving for me, he was 22 at that time and they never increased the policy's rate...

For T/T is cheaper because there are tons of insurers, while for expediters not so many. That's why they rip us off. I don't know if Benchmark covers for TN, but you should give it a try. They're way cheaper than CIS...

CIS was once the best place to get a reasonable price. Not anymore. Try Benchmark, but I don't know if they cover trucks from Illinois... Anyway, if that $5000/year includes the cargo insurance too, take it!

From my POV, I don't think we actually care that much about others safety, as much as we care about our own wallet. I don't know how much illegally they run, but they do runs for peanuts just to keep their wheels spinning...

I prefer Lowe's... free wifi, you know... ;)

I believe it... I wasn't with Blair, but a small carrier, yet I was driving about 11-12k miles per month...

No, just the pads. Yes, I know, that was a 200 bux job... :(

They did just the front brakes, not all of 'em...

None of my other trucks had any kind of problems, 'cept this one.

I was just trying to give you an idea... of course there are specifications. As a matter of fact I had this problem with a guy, he worked almost two weeks, then the third week he used my truck for his own interest, refusing to return the truck. He did it only when he heard the word "police"...

They are allowed, if I'm not mistaken, for a 500 miles radius from home...

How about when the contract states clearly that "if the driver does not return the truck within X days at a specific location, it'll be considered stolen vehicle and the authorities will be informed", and he signed for that?

It's gas. I've heard that the diesel version is a total mess...

I checked it out, none of these apply to my truck...

I know that, I've been through that years ago... no, this time they're from different places, but the very first repair, that almost $600 brake repair, it was from his neighborhood, I presume he was helping the local community... anyway, to burn a two months old starter sounds like...
