    Happy New Year from Coralville Iowa... Drove a load in late last night and I woke up to snow on the ground. There is supposed to be more snow on the way this afternoon / evening. Praying for a load out of here sooner than later!!!

    Northwest Ohio area

    Thanks for the heads up... I'm sitting in Coralville Iowa looking for a load out of here, and I woke up to snow covering the ground. I hope I can find a load soon because they are supposed to get hit here again tonight with up to another 3" of snow.

    Greetings from Buffalo West Virginia !!!

    I agree Sir... The ironic part of it all is when I first started expediting I worked for a man who only required 300k personal vehicle insurance. Most of the freight I hauled was generated off the Selec Load Board. I'm talking loads brokered out of companies named Fed Custom, Panther, and Bolt...

    Greetings from Buffalo West Virginia !!!

    I am set up with 3 companies on that list... With that being said I have seen very little freight opportunity with them as an outside carrier. Personally, CHRW has been a really good fit for us. Thanks to you Crich we got set up with the boys in Flint. I also stopped in to the local office and...

    Question about getting my own Authority

    Crich, I want to thank you for sharing your ideas and business leads... You have been most helpful to me just from the information that you provide "willingly and freely" I recently ran a load down to Florida for a company you promoted in one of your threads. Had you not mentioned them I...

    Expediter in desparate need of help

He wanted to help without being recognized for his good deed. Thanks for reminding me what it's really supposed to be about today. Jeff P.S. Turtle is...

    Just Getting started with 16' diesel cutaway box

    XMUDMAN. I was considering making the attic part of the box that hangs over the cab my sleeper area if I keep the e450 Box truck. I can choke off two feet of the box length in the front cargo area and still end up with a true 14' inside length. That extra two feet will make it easier to get up...

    Just Getting started with 16' diesel cutaway box

    str8trk. thanks for the response. I agree and understand the points you are making in your response. I have a few places that want me to drive for them.
