>As I said in the first post, it's just an idea...Those that are skeptical can opt out. Given that the A-Team responded to my post, I assume he believes I was skeptical of his idea. On the contrary, I believe his idea has merit. I just believe that there is not now, nor likely in the...

I've never been an owner in search of a driver. I've never been a driver in search of an owner. Those are my bona fides, but as I reread this thread, a few thoughts come to mind. In the begining, or at least in my 1989 begining, the greatest majority of nationwide expediters were family-member...

Ok; here's truth in advertising. From 1 Jan 04 until 4 Aug 04 (USCG birthday) my van, operating as a team only 5/8 of the year, has averaged $1.19 per loaded mile. We've driven 32413 loaded miles and 60423 total miles thereby averaging $.64 all miles. If Rene' and I were operating in an...

DD Just got home and enjoyed, with some envy, all the ideas you've got wrapped up in a small package. In anticipation of you being at the EXPO, I've taken my van out of the competition for any of the many prizes available. You'll probably win 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Looks to me like you'd scale...

>Terry by "70% availability" does that mean being "in >service" an average of 7 out of 10 days. Are 70% >availability and 70% load acceptance considered good in the >industry? Sorry for delay; I've been on the road doing my 70%. Yes, as RichM sez, that is my carriers standard and...

this should be published in the serviceman's newspaper 'Stars and Stripes'.

Sen. Kerry's Vietnam exploits have received top billing lately, particularly at the DNC convention in Boston. He has been quoted as saying as a Navy Swift Boat Commander engaged in Operation Markettime, his mission, was to attract enemy fire and suppress same. Operation Market time, as I...

Apollo - You're right. There are so many variables we all know about, and there probably are an equal amount that only you know about. nearly all of these are discussed in recent past posts. But, your question "is $1K per month for the owner reasonable"? Probably, if all the variables and the...

>During orientation at Con-Way I was told that a cargo van >with a team could make 110k to 130k per year. Let's assume you get 85 cents avg per loaded mile, and you only need to work 6 days a week so you can do maint on yourself and truck in order to earn an unbelievable, and likely...

where/how do you find all your neat stuff! At least it's neat to me 'cause I'm new at this computer thing. Printed the illusion and it still has my eyes gooned up.

Jeff Jensen's truck topic article, dated Jul 19, 2004, expresses the excitement for the expediters that many of us share with Lawrence and his staff at EO. These folks have given a lot of themselves to promote the industry of which we all share a fondness. The Expedite Expo has been a vehicle...
