Next Batter. Ahh, now I understand why so much typeing lately.

The present HOS requirements certainly present a challenge for team members to discipline themselves to rest when they are off duty, and support their round on the clock. That, seems to be the most difficult part, or, is for myself. Eleven is a stretch if you've had only a couple winks. I...

But, if the only thing available to you was a couple skids for a much smaller truck (smaller truck/rate) and was under your percieved revenue floor, how dependable would you be? Would the teams record still be error free with a full roster?

Good point BigJoe. However, the problem wouldn't be too many trucks. The problem would be too many what's in the trucks, if we took the whole ten. Best way to start, would be with the three mentioned and let the seven walk, then, there would be opportunity for a big happy family. Notice, I...

I gotta be missing something here?? What in the world would someone want with heat in Georgia??

All this seems like voodoo accounting to me. Better be carefull Hedge, I remember recently some CEO'S from some biggie businesses got their peepees slapped for using this kind of math. Good analagy Fish, seems i've met way more of your type three's the last couple years than I ever figgured was...

"But there better be something out of Erie today." OR, i'll?????? What??

yep Buz, ya gotta read everything like it's testable, because, it probably is.

I'm with Leo. And, he is not alone. We ran 14,259 miles in, about or thru PA this last year,, with about 10% on toll roads. We don't do much in NE, central or E NY because our customers don't like to hear, rate plus tolls in their quote. problem with toll roads, they eventually are worse to...

Got the camping machine out a couple weeks ago, and am typing from Corpus Christi. Texas has some down home Mexican chow, and really good shrimp where i'm at. You could enjoy it more if'n you'd get away from them truck stops too!! Temps going to drop here to about 40F Mon 15 Jan for a couple...

Heard? How about some facts here??? The interesting thing, is, that seems a lot of folks ask questions here, instead of asking a/the Carrier of interest. That way you can get it from the horses mouth instead of some horses a$$ guessing. Does not relate to this post, but, think about it...

There is a difference in the freight categorys you all type about. The misunderstanding, I feel, is caused by many of our "experts" here are still in the box with the figgur'in process. Or, have been convinced they are really in fact elite. And, what they do is elite. Hell we do what you all...

You have been Expediting for "several months" and have to ask what size skids are???? Interesting? To say the least. My quess is, most 60+% will be 48 by 40 inches. But, be aware that you have a whole 10.5 feet to fill up.

Pucker factor getting a little high Dreamer??? Let em put the gloves on here, they can't on the other forums. It's healthy. It's kinda like the ole dog chasing the milk truck. It's fun to watch what he does when he catchs it.

Yea man. Being"stuck in a Truck" is not good. If you are not stuck at home. Bout like Chet, runn'in 25-2600 miles a week and whining about setting. I guess I don't understand either the whining or, the setting. Good advice ATEAM, take your time off when you should. Not, when you want to. It...

Texas Courier: As usual the info you will get here will be from inside the box, caused by years of not getting outside of it. We make a large number of flatbed expedite moves, and, there is plenty of need. Feel free to PM or email me, if you choose.

Got yourself a third strike?? Must be a real slow learner here! I'd suggest you stay where you are at.

Cat: All respondents here are giving their views from their views. Some are twentyfive percenters and some are hunderd ten percenters. A wide swing of typers. You can go where you choose to go. Depends on you.

Hey Prof, that's what happens when you start lett'in someone not in the truck, make business decisions.

Jeez Hawk, is that you typ'in?? Outside the comfort zone?? Couldn't be. Where in the world did you ever get these ideas? to reply to the original post, yes, you can be a victim or, an example, depending on how you handle what you face each day. I certainly remember the days when a run is...
