My wife said we have new lake behind our house now, it was a pond/swamp! Maybe I can go fishin' when I get home:D

How's the weather? Lot of flooding back home(about 120 miles south of you) from reports that I have gotten.

The devil is in the details. If I remember right, it is/was a FO with a large carrier, not sure , it was/is in the classifieds.

I would think more info is needed. How much do you use it? How many GB a month?

I hear ya. I'm not expediting...yet... but I wouldn't take that deal either. If that was all I could get, I think I will remain a bedbugger

I guess it depends on far one has the ability to look back.

Not looking to team. I have been a solo driver and would prefer to remain one. I've spoke with a few carriers, now im going to check out the fleet owners. I would like to see which one best works for me to get my feet wet in expediting. I am really considering the fleet owner approach. I just...

Yes, rates are down everywhere in the trucking industry. I've had a CDL since its inception in '92 (?),I was driving before that. I am currenlty an O/O, but my straight truck is not going to work for expediting. It is set up for furniture.
