They are based not to far from me. I talked to one fleet owner who uses them. He did not say anything bad and has been with them a few years. I think he has 2-3 Sprinters with them.

Is that $2500 gross or net?

Yup there is

Ok now for the conclusion of my wild adventure. I started my regular business today doing the auto parts delivery and he calls me and says "I have a load for you going to Georgia need you to pick it up in an hour" I replied "I have been waiting for days for a load and and at my regular job...

Thata what they told me I know

Yup I am going to be like "Hey man, I know you wanted me to do this full time but the last 10 days we have only ran two days and its all nice saying they are bidding on loads for me for this and that but in the mean time I have bills I need to pay so I decided to go back to my old job. I think...

Exactly stuck 2 weeks in Laredo would suck. Any company that left me stranded for 2 weeks I would be like "bye"

The metro Detroit area is a tough area to get loads out of because everybody and their brother has a Sprinter.

I want it to work but they are trying to bid my truck like a regular box truck at a higher rate then a sprinter but the mpg is the same. They need to realize I need to pay bills man. They need to bid low to get me out of Michigan and keep me on the road. No one makes money just sitting around...

I think I have been brainwashed by the Russians

Geese the kid came by to drop off the ramps. He said they are working on a load for me now but he said the same thing yesterday. . Nice kid though but I did not want to tell him I quit yet because he is a nice guy. If they get some miracle load last minute then maybe I will roll with it but my...

The only people I know in expediting that are doing reasonably well are doing the Laredo runs up to Oshawa Ontario for GM because it is steady work 11 months out of the year for companies like RJR transport out of Windsor Ontario. Those guys maybe average $800 a week. I almost signed up with...

Believe me the lifestyle I can handle but just the potential ups and downs with income I think would be to brutal for me. I have the savings but even the potential for money to be drained from the back account concerns me. I know e everyone says "oh just save your money when things are good"...

Yeah screw it man. I will probably just stick with my auto parts delivery business for another year. As an independent contractor doing $600 a week after all expenses working 45-47 hours a week is the same as someone making $37,000 a year at an office job. I figure if I do auto parts another...

If I don't get another load by the end of the day today I am going back to my old job. This 25 year old kid bought his 1st box truck and hired me as his driver. Granted this is his 1st truck and he thinks we will make all this money. I was supposed to start last Monday. My first load wasn't...

Yup it is.

If I don't get another load by the end of the day today I am going back to my local job expediting auto parts to shops for $600 a week. This waiting for loads for days on end is cutting into my income man. I can understand the 1st time but going into the 2nd week and still having delays for days...

As long as the gpv is under 10000 I can haul up to 26000 pounds legally but he'll that truck can't take more then 3000 pounds and the guys brokering the deals are all Russians that have taken Calculus and some with engineering degrees. These are not your typical dispatchers. When I went into TRW...

I was just letting the dispatchers handle that.
