As my grandpa used to say, "men don't dream, now pick up the shovel"

Yes, Zorry paid attention to the details. FedEx is the 50-90K, the high number is the slim no name opportunity.

I hear you xiggi, I think this is one of those cream of the top extreme cases. The thing is there is no recruiter, I'm the one harassing them to let me in, they don't really want to because it's just a one family thing. I'm begging them to take me on a % for dispatch to them... baking fresh...

No, a friends friend is running this op. Sprinter salesperson says other things, like chrome wheels will make your car go faster (no joke).

There is no need for 8,600 miles. 3,500 miles/week * $1.00 = $3,500/week * 4 = $14,000 gross. That is only 500 miles per day. Maybe one or two days are waiting, but because they are setting their own rates on freight it's not as low as $1.00 either. So makes sense.

Wow! I noticed you are in California, where abouts? Everyone says California is very difficult to make it now. +1 If these guys are running their own, cutting out the dispatchers and everyone in the middle, are very aggressive then maybe it is plausible? Like I said earlier if running...

This Barnum and Bailey fellows you speak of, are they hiring? ;)

Lets say they contract loads out at 1.20 and drive 3,000 miles/week = $14,400 gross. They work on their own (family) so get the loads direct. But they hustle too, all over the US/Canada, guy sleeps in a sleeping bag on top of the pallets, so expenses are at a minimum I would assume with that...

I was mistaken, the dh is .15 after 50 miles and the FSC is .17/loaded mile for FedEx. FedEx guy says the wait could be 24-36hrs "if more then something is wrong". Waiting for Panther to send me there stuff. I've been looking at running my own with the Sprinter, that way I can get more cpm, of...

I'm in the process of purchasing a Sprinter in New York, seems like there is enough demand for it in the North East, especially routes running into the NYC, Phily to Boston, and into Canada. Talked to FedExCC recruiter, says the lazy guys make about $50-55K gross annually and their top of the...
