    Question on all state expedited

    I know that they are part of the expedite alliance and that they bid on PTM and NLM moves. They've been around a while, but beyond that nothing to say one way or the other about them.

    Accidents - German Style

    The autobahn as well as the surface streets there are all in immaculate shape compared to what we have here in Detroit. I think some of our roads haven't been repaired since WWII.

    Still Want Barrynomics?

    Plenty more folks would move if they had any kind of hope of being able to sell their house. The Free Press had an article about the murder rate in Detroit. More murders here than in NYC---and NYC has at least 8 times more people.

    Automakers get a feel of making a deal with the devil...

    Right on Greg----they should have just let the economy weed out poor performing dealerships. Seems like just another smoke screen to draw everyone's attention away from something else.

    Fish and Kids

    Good times! I took my 6yr old boy and 4yr old girl out fishing yesterday afternoon. He had been out before, but her first time. Both kids filled up a basket with bluegill and pumpkinseeds. Glad I had the camera with me---like u said the grin from ear to ear---and how her eyes lit up! Best...

    GM and Chrysler Loads

    I heard that Chrysler loads are going to be leaving the NLM site and going over to one that Expediters International is starting up.

    Barack H. Obama... H is for

    The sooner the better--maybe, just maybe then the media's love affair with him will taper off a bit.

    Search for LTL Loads

    There are sites like Uship (that you can access through a link on EO), expediteloads.com, getloaded.com, and several others. I've looked around on them, but have never used em. It seems like it would be pretty hit and miss in finding something that would match up---right place, right time...

    Yellow/Roadway Stock is at $0.96

    Roadway must have a group that bids on expedites--they got an award from NLM back in 2005, which would make me believe that they at least at one time moved a fair amount of expedite. I would guess stuff that picked up Friday and delivered Monday could still fit into their network...

    Landstar purchase of NLM

    Doug - it's possible and I don't see anything illegal about it. Outside of NLM, I think the A3i purchase is interesting as well. Landstar can now offer freight management (NLM) or the software for customers to manage their own freight (A3i and components of NLM's system). Even if the customer...

    Tea Party a Success !

    Where do you go to find information on elected officials and their voting patterns (especially on the local and state level)? It seems like the mainstream media is slanted one way or the other (MSNBC, CNN to the left and Fox to the right). I think a bigger issue is educating people on what...

    Landstar purchase of NLM

    I would think that Landstar would at least get a last look at the load after all the bids are in and decide if they want to match the best bid. If they're smart they'll put a database together of all the bids that come in so they know what rates the market is bearing.

    Landstar purchase of NLM

    Hello--long time lurker, first time poster. I've seen NLM mentioned on here before and thought this article might have some interest to the folks in the forum. There is an announcement on Landstar's website about purchasing NLM and A3i.
