    John elliot and the load 1 gang!

    I think at this point it would be so, so, soooooo refreshing to have a positive non-adversarial relationship with dispatch...working for the same goal without all the lies and BS.....

    John elliot and the load 1 gang!

    Oh MY, I had no idea you two were with Load1! For some reason I thought you were with some company out of the NYC area. We are exploring all options at this point...you know how that goes. We have been in the business a long time relative to others and just don't know what we want to do...

    John elliot and the load 1 gang!

    What about a chevy cargo max unit? Is this acceptable? I assume that you do auto freight? Is this what you are referring to with regard to not using cargo vans and bidding? Would you have to carry 3 pallets in Sprinter type vehicle? In addition, are you stating that you pay on a percentage of...

    John elliot and the load 1 gang!

    I really don't understand what this means...lol. I was not aware there was a company out here that did not provide payment details, although, I have heard of companies that have changed payments etc... Knowing what I would be paid for loaded and dead head miles is very important and I don't...

    Site seeing and log books

    With the electronic big brother logging equipment in place for FedEx now we are either forced to log our personal usage from dinners to movies to whatever....or try and get everything done within "their allocated/designated" personal time of 45 minutes. We have resorted to renting vehicles as...

    EORB Concerns fromthe FedEx forum

    I don’t know how indispensable truck owner operators/drivers are going to be in the near future. The pool of drivers is shrinking daily as well as people buying trucks…especially expediter trucks. The fact that many expedite truck and sleeper manufacturers went out of business in the past year...

    EORB Concerns fromthe FedEx forum

    Yes, I guess this is what it is. $68.00 a month and we toss our data cold out I guess if we want to continue to be TVAL.

    EORB Concerns fromthe FedEx forum

    You are absolutely correct Greg. 49 CFR 376.12(c)(1) requires a motor carrier using leased equipment to assume "exclusive possession, control, and use of the equipment" for the duration of the lease. If a motor carrier is issued an EOBR remedial directive, then it must install (or have...

    EORB Concerns fromthe FedEx forum

    I don't know who agreed to having EOBR's. I imagine, that they tossed it to the phantom Driver Council, which, for all intensive purposes, is not a true council but merely a group of FedEx hand-picked un-named persons that attend unpublished council meetings at which no minutes are taken....and...

    49 CFR 376.12(c)(1) requires a motor carrier using leased equipment to assume "exclusive possession, control, and use of the equipment" for the duration of the lease. Owner- operator vehicles leased to such carrier would be required to have EOBRs installed even if the owner-operator holds...

    EORB Concerns fromthe FedEx forum

    Sigh….I should have known better than to post here again…it is same ole, same ole… Dave, I did not realize that you were out here driving again? As I stated in another post in the FedEx forum, (where I was told FedEx related posts were to be placed), we know several couples who USED to be...

    Panther Secrets

    Yup, I figured that out after I posted originally, then I tried to explain and made my post even more confusing. :rolleyes: I really was only going to comment on the 34% figure, which still seems like a big percentage to me. Rather than delete my post, I chose to try to “make it” make...
