    Low Paying Load Opps

    We are close to the company as we make it our goal to know everything we can about how our company works and how the policies work. The more we know and understand how the system works the better we can position ourselves for the next load. The thread is started by a person that is probably...

    Low Paying Load Opps

    The way I look at it the reason the load offers go out so far is they need trucks in more areas. The dead head is what is getting to us. It appears to me since we cannot pre plan emergencies or loads there has to be more trucks to cover the area or the other choice is to dead head them in to...

    Low Paying Load Opps

    I agree with you dead miles are always figured into our total miles and PPM. I was just wondering how far out they were looking for trucks to cover loads? What I wonder is does FCC need to be recruiting more trucks so they can position trucks better to be closer to loads? It seems as if the...

    Low Paying Load Opps

    I do not believe the dispatchers have a QualComm to see what a "04" really is. We have not noticed any change in the load opps and have not turned down or accepting loads any more than usual.

    Ray Lawrence Espar of Michigan

    We have two huge reasons to thank Ray! For one he made Molly's life a lot better at the Expo. On Friday morning about 3:30 the alternator on our Rig Master died. First thing in the morning Bob called Ray to see if he could bring us an alternator. Bob caught Ray on his way out of the door...

    All Together at the Expo

    From what I saw the whole focus of the Expo was on the positive not any negative this year at the Expo. Why look for an ugly truck when there were so many really nice trucks in attendance. There were a lot of really nice and unique trucks out in the various parking lots. There was a lot of...
