    Mexican trucks........again

    i made a comment earlier in this post about equal opportunity. still seems to me to be the first and most important issue that needs to be resolved. i know nobody will go to mexico, well not many o/o, mainly larger truckload carriers and then just across the border as they do now. with that...

    where are the loads

    with that cleared up and if that is the way pay is structured. then your rate plus the .43 you said for a fsc make for a pretty decent rate. now the next thing you need to do is set back and take a breath. even if the response seems on the attack side really they are not. more on the heated...

    Why would i want to show OOS

    well it sounds like you are using the sylectus program for everything there and the powers that be that run the company simply want your dispatch procedures to be this way, which is fine. most if not all of the others carriers do not look at board position that way. i use that term loosely cause...

    where are the loads

    still waiting on a response to the rate/fsc that is paid by this company. also would like to know what your primary coverage area is if there is one. what are the carrier deductions to the o/o each week. [see previous post]

    where are the loads

    very true, i think the most you can hope for with most carriers is a once a week fsc. update. heck some only do it once or twice a month.

    Lrt

    that is generally what that means. i just cant figure from that post why that one would get him banned. he did have some other negative posts about a certain other carrier he was with. they let those slide and maybe decided this was enough. dont know only the powers that be can tell us...

    where are the loads

    plus there is a difference between a flat rate plus fsc. and a rate figured on a %. on a % sometimes there is no [fsc.] only an all in rate so when fuel goes up so does the rate.

    why landing gears ?

    alot of the p&d trucks have spring suspensions not air ride as to squash and pop the air bags. but they all would have if smart. that alot of rough wear and tear on a suspension. also some places require landing gear or they wont drive on the truck.

    Mexican trucks........again

    another point in this matter that is mentioned almost every time is equal opportunity. to me that is the first and biggest issue that needs to be addressed. without that being resolved dont even proceed with the rest cause it dont matter. i realize none of us want to go to mexico. they keep...

    where are the loads

    wrong attitude, in thinking that way, remember our discussion on minimums. rite now 1.30 is a minimum for alot of o/o running straights. here is a breakdown from our point base on a 1000 mile load at 1.30 no dh. pay 1300.00 - 355.55 [email protected] = 944.45 < 1000 mi = .94 per mi after fuel. .94 -...

    where are the loads

    so lets get this strait, .43 for fsc on top of 1.30/1.40 a mi. or is the 1.30/1.40 a mi including the fsc. please do tell. and what do you pay for dh and a how many mi. must the driver give up.
