^^I retrieved this image from a website that some consider to be a trustworthy source of expediter information. I hope you find it useful. Oh, and people driving a lot of miles isn't necessarily indicative of freight picking up. It's indicative of some people driving a lot of miles. Thanks...

Monday morning through Saturday morning: KC to Brownville, NE going to Philadelphia - 1,327 miles that required a POD within 21 hours. On the return trip back to KC, I landed a load from STL to KC. Then a pick up south of KC going to Gainesville, Ga. Then back to KC. Friday I did a couple of...

With 5 vans, a Sprinter, and at least 3 straights, the TA in Nashville resembles a used auto lot owned by Panther.

Could the part about requiring motel receipts be quoted from that link, please? I couldn't find it.

Link please.

After travelling 1804 miles on Monday and Tuesday, I had nothing on Wednesday and Thursday. Feast or famine. Currently headed from KC to Connecticut...then back to KC.

On the way to Arkansas, I scored a run picking up tomorrow early a.m. in St Joe, MO delivering to Wchita Falls, TX. Then I'll head back to KC. It's pretty rare that I have this much lead time on a pick-up.

Headed to Clarksville, AR. It was suppose to be an a.m. delivery tomorrow, but I found a phone number for the consignee and they're going to wait after hours for my arrival. They were surprised I was going to be able to make it down so early. I don't care much for sitting while loaded. Or...

Headed to Houston via Springfield (MO). Then back to KC for the weekend. No locust swarms, hopefully.

On the way home I heard a faint, yet, worrisome buzzing. I could hear it at 72mph with the windows up and the radio on. I was concerned that the cause of the sound was the van itself. It sounded like the van was dragging tinsel on the asphalt...really heavy tinsel. So, I turned off the radio and...

Sioux Center, IA. The bugs sound like rain on the windshield. The consignee said he'd special request me if he gets another one. He liked the time I made. I'll slow it down a bit heading back to KC.

Your posts in the current inverter/fridge thread is what spawned this thread. I would have liked to have given recognition that I found your post(s) helpful. A simple click of the button would have done as much if that option was available. I could have just clicked 'Thanks' and moved on. As it...

My daughter and I test drove the new Chevy Camelo today. Not much power, but great on mileage. 'Cash For Clunker' approved. Runs on water! Good to be at home.

^^I put the good part in bold. What this "hack" (aka 3rd Party Plugin) does is provide a "Thank You" button at the bottom right of each post. Ala: When someone clicks on the "Thanks" button, a notification as much is made just below said post. Ala: This is one of the most useful...

Yeah, but it got them out of Kansas City, though. There's hardly anything coming out of Kansas City, and what there IS coming out doesn't pay much. If you can find a load running to another location, and said load pays for half of your fuel/gas, consider it a win. Kansas City is the Salt Lake...

Oh, man...I just put one from Lowe's in my van. Bummer. I wonder if, maybe, it wouldn't be better to buy a vintage one off of craigslist or eBay? I would have, but I was limited to specific dimensions...makes 'em a little harder to find.

I followed 38 somewhat comparable trucks on eBay over the past couple of months. 36 of those trucks either didn't receive a single bid or they failed to meet the reserve price. The 2 that did sell, were 'no reserve' auctions that sold ridiculously cheap. So, I priced it accordingly. I bought...

Stephenville, TX - in the van. Headed back to KC. This weekend I sold my straight truck for close to my asking price, had a chicken dinner at my grandma's, and spent quality time with my daughter. Life's been good.

Useful, maybe, sorta kinda if you're consistently grabbing loads from certain unknown shippers off of a load board. Maybe, sorta. Kinda. But, if you're consistently grabbing loads from load boards, are you really, ya know, expediting? Or just transportering?
