    Undecided % or straight pay

    Either way it takes time and has potential to put negative media on the fedex name.

    Conference call for surface fleet

    Well that's the rub. No good drivers will stay on as surface units. The only surface people left will be people "doing their time before going into w/g" and the others will be people just desperate for a job or a place to live. Some will provide good service, most won't.

    Undecided % or straight pay

    That would be a violation of the lease agreement and would get fedex in a lawsuit. They will offer the 59.5% people 59.5% of the load regardless if it's more or less than the flat rate offer. Now thing is most offers that are 59.5 % are less than what the flat rate will be. Only occasionally...

    New flat rate

    My declines will always include a $ figure. What's the worst that could happen ? Get a call from my CC telling me to stop ?

    New flat rate

    I wasn't on the last call but my understanding originally was that dod loads would continue to be negotiated no matter what truck it goes to. Has this changed?

    Expediter Services Vs. Mayfield Express

    Most good line-x or rhino liner shops could probably do the job. A lot of them spray things other than Bed liners often so they can handle this as well.

    Comfort Pro APU BLUES!!!

    I'm looking hard at the carrier for my next truck. I'm interested in the stand alone version for a custom sleeper. It has a real generator instead of an inverter. It would save me a decent amount of money over a onan and a roof top a/c and be driver 1000 hour maint friendly.

    Considerations...

    Dry box eh? Could you pm me and let me know why y'all chose dry box and are sticking with it? I'm not being sarcastic. We are buying trucks and I might be over looking something but I thought t-Val was a good option.

    Slow?

    We got 2 good loads back to back thankfully but we went through a lot of crap to get to them. Someone took them for cheap.
