28 days in Seattle, had a load going to LA last night and Billings Montana today, bid them in the .85-.90 range... customer cancelled ! :mad: weather is finally warming up so that is good! I need to book a load can someone send me and Sprinter Air Freight to another city ;)

Should've gotten a Sprinter with Suspension Seats. It's only a $700 upgrade at dealer. Not sure why no one thinks of this when buying one, most don't consider the added comfort on a long haul. To get your hands on a set of these at a junkyard is next to a needle in a haystack.

working on some USHIP freight headed into Denver if all else fails, two days left in the week for me. Friday doesn't exist in Seattle. ;)

OVM we go round and round with this, the only reason I'm running cheap is because I'm on with the wrong carrier. Just wanted to clear that up. Things will return to my .97 rate that I was running in the past. :)

Seattle Washington for 21 days, this is my last week waiting it out. Come on lets hit a grand slam right into Chicago or Detroit. :)

There could be such thing as a good driver shortage...

I'll make note of that if I ever get to 500k and will get it done before it gets worse. Here is the link regarding your repair. Dr.A TECH ALERT-647 High Pumps - Sprinter-Forum Do you know any place in CT that can do a used Sprinter check? In the process of replacing a totaled 2006 that only...

Running local is repetitive!

How many stops per day, what size truck are you in, income?

How many miles are on your Sprinter? I was under the impression this is a problem related to high miles. I've never had such thing happen w/ 300k or less range.

La used to be a 3-4 a day board. I'm trying to erase the West Coast from the Cargo van segment of this business. Gotta charge $2 per mile when going into Seattle. Been sitting here 17 days, I suppose it is not a bad place to sit but the lows will be dropping down to mid 40's next week which is...

Sounds like davekc and you are on the same page regarding this topic. :)

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate another contributing factor is that the load can go through 4-5 different brokers before being delivered to the customer, everyone has to get a piece of the profit so when it gets to the last person which...

Very inspiring words Bruno. Hope you have a nice weekend.

We are being optimistic about this and hope they will understand her side regarding how the accident occurred, as tomorrow I think we will get a answer and move on in the best way possible. Forgot to mention that the TT that was hit took off after accident, that hopefully will work in favor.

Here are the stats. It may be closer to 60k. There are some miles in there unaccounted. Loads Loaded Miles Empty Moves Empty Miles DH Miles 71 38273 24 9435 4943

That included deadhead and empty miles and personal miles. Not sure what the loaded amount was but I can look that up and post details. I finally got a chance to speak with her today about 36 hours after the accident she is doing ok with 2 broken ribs and small scrapes, and wants to get back on...

I don't think it will, someone with more panther "premium logistics" experience could probably make a better assessment. I've only had this truck on for 21 months. Accumulated 155k in that time period. Seems like that is pretty good amount for this business. She had ran 62k+ in 5 months. Now I...

No fires that van was going to go 800k+ nothing was stopping it. Coast to Coast ready at 317k
