Welcome back. A great lesson learned and good to have online friends with sage advice and offers of help.

RE: Preparing to invest... but it isn't an investm We're getting off topic here so I'll be brief. I should have clarified what 7.2% means. The customer pays 7.2% on top of their shipping costs; however, we get all of the surcharge. This equates to the current rate of about 15 cents per mile...

RE: Preparing to invest... but it isn't an investm FedEx Custom Critical fuel Surcharge is currently at 7.2% except on the west Coast it's 9.0% Some carrier/customer contracts provide no surcharge. Anyone else have numbers?

Not a thing improper with this post or the sale of other personal items related to the biz we're all in, other than expedite trucks. Quote me. I think it's great for all of us to share the stuff we no longer need. Was it too many Krispy Kremes ot the Atkins diet that prompts the sale?

Expedite Cows: Buy two cows and lease them out to an expedite carrier They stand around in the field watching the bull for a couple of days. The carrier finally calls and asks you to milk one of the cows. You are given 58% of the milk. The other cow gets bored and hungry and wanders off to...

Al: More often than we'd like, a full skid at 48" height will barely slide in. If you add another 1/2 inch it might hurt you chances to get loaded. If you have a sprinter, Lap2's idea is perfect. I think I'm in the minority by not liking E-track on the floor. It gets very dirty and can't be...
