Yeah ..... he just couldn't resist could he ?
A big "well done" to all, who made their respective carriers numbers go up.
I AGREE CONGRADS TO BOLT !
WE DO GOOD WORK AND ARE REWARDED FOR IT !
NOW IF WE COULD JUST GET THEM TO GIVE THE DRIVERS ENOUGH ACCXESS TO THE ALLIANCE BOARD WHERE WE COULD SEE WHERE OTHER UNITS ARE SITTING INORDER TO DECIDE WHERE WE SHOULD MOVE TO ,TO CHASE FRIEGHT, WITHOUT BOTHERING DISPATCH. OTHER COMPANIES HAVE THIS TYPE SITES. ?wonder why bolt is behind the times on that one ?

First - Congrats Bolt.
Second - OVM their annual revenue is one day's operating expenses for two of their competitors
I want to know who?
I mean access to the "alliance"?
I would love to have access too but how, where and who would I talk to?
Well if you want to talk about behind the times, I have seen ONE company come close to leveraging technology.
There is a lot of things that can be done with data, many already know what I am talking about.

You can. Go to Bolt-Express.com and you can see any city, and a wide range of miles from any city. Bolt is not the one behind the times....
lol-my bad....

When you use the Bolt site to check for trucks in a certain city and mile radius, you are seeing ALL of the alliance trucks, you can not break out the Bolt trucks....
That page is really for "clients" to see how many units are avaiable that Bolt has access to, as they can offer loads to the other carriers as all companies do.....
Id also love to see just the Bolt units in a given area....sure would make life easier...and save me calling dispatch for the info.....

Any Alliance member can put the same thing up......how many other carriers have a plae where the drivers can see how many unit for their carrier are in a certain area, i know panther use to....
i mean they could use the same page, all they would need to do would be add a "synbol" to the Bolt units that the "clients looking at it would have no idea what it meant, but the Bolt contractors would a simple * next to the Bolt units would do the trick.....

Eddie and I used to use that site till E-1 blocked their units from being seen somehow...
E-1 used to call us a small straight and the look at the dims and pick out the E-1 units...
Panther and Bolt call Sprinters CV's

Yeah I know, but he did ask to see the Aliance trucks.....just telling him he could. Express-1 use to be on it (until the cat got out of the bag), we could see our units by the way they were listed on the site. But, then E-1 took us off.....bumber....now we got the great Mac 19 !!!! Woohoo.
ya see Fleetvision? they call us a sprinter now..
