Steve You can do what you feel you need to do as that is your GOD given right. I like John and I'm sorry that you all feel that I have disrespected Load1, John, it's drivers and the Load1 the Load1 staff. I was just posting what I was ask to do by some Load1 drivers. No, it wasn't Wombat as I...

Turtle I can only go by what the Load1 Drivers are telling me. I suppose they are lying now. I won't throw names out but I know some of the drivers have sat seven days without a load.

Englishlady it has nothing to do with truck maintenance as I know for a fact that John does everything to make sure trucks are kept in tip top shape. As John said it has to do with logs.

Shadow, yes my legal first name is Richard (Dick). If that makes you feel better to call me a DICK HEAD that is your choice as It really doesn't bother me. You got your cheerleader shoes on and I understand. The drivers are the ones that caused this for Load1 and I hope now that John makes...

That is for Canada OVM not the USA. Here Panther scores SAFER Web - Company Snapshot PANTHER II TRANSPORTATION INC

Panthers score is Satisfactory OVM, which the best score you can get. Why did you bring that up? A conditional safety rating is given to a carrier that just went threw a audit with DOT that has failed. This rating effects a carriers ability to get loads. Sent from my SM-N900P using EO Forums...

Straight trucks and Sprinters. Load1 is a great company and I'm not trying to bash them. I'm just pointing out the safety rating has changed and this could be the reason why. Sent from my SM-N900P using EO Forums mobile app

I got many calls from my friends that have trucks on with Load1 asking if our trucks are sitting. Our trucks are running like crazy at our carrier. I checked Load1 safety rating and this may be why their drivers are sitting. Look at Load1 safety rating. SAFER Web - Company Snapshot LOAD ONE LLC

You can't buy a brand new truck built like this for $159,000. If you did, add on the Excise tax for three axles which is about $30,000 to $40,000. The lift-gate on this truck is was not cheap. It has an APU, and many more things. I'm sure if you built this truck brand new the way it is right now...

The Expediters Expo is a great place to make friends and get all the information you need. I wish there would have been something like the Expediters Expo back in 1995 when I started. Lawrence Mc Cord and Ontime Media does an outstanding job each year. I'm sure you will have fun and find the...

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate By doing the repairs himself he saves a lot of money that goes into his bank account. That pretty much is paying him.

Me too John, but Tricia has me on a diet to lose some of my tonnage this year. I have already lost ten pounds in two weeks and have a long way to go.

We have a 24 foot D unit that is very light and could handle 31,250. We will only let that truck go up to 20,000 lbs as I think anything more you're asking for trouble.

Dreamer Sometimes you have to yell loud so the other person will understand you. Some drivers just don't understand things unless your yelling at them.

Did he tell you about the pack of smokes one also? Yes the Lot Lizard would be hard to beat.

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate They did have a limit of five trucks at one time, that may not be the case now. So to me limiting a fleet owner is not very friendly.

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate No reefer work is not dead. it;s just being put on company owned trailers. Ask ATeam why he left FedEx. FedEx is no different. I don't know if Jamom123 is running solo or team. Mini runs I do know now pay...

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate So your saying you would go broke at $1.20 a mile base rate with a .05 more for a team, .05 more for a lift gate truck, and .05 more for having haz mat. That's $1.35 plus FSC. We have made more money in six...

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate That is how we did it for 14 years at Roberts Express/ FedEx Custom Critical. You only get reefer pay on reefer loads. Been that way for years. nothing new.

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate Base rate at Panther is $1.20 a mile for a D unit with .05 more for a team, .05 more for a lift gate truck. If you have a C unit the base rate starts at $1.10 per mile.
