Has anyone found it easier to get a load out of Laredo tx? How about any part of Texas? I was there last friday through monday the 11th. On Friday there we're 7 panther drivers on the board at 10am. a couple hours later only 5. we had moved up to around waco and found out at around the time of 3pm there we're only 2 panther drivers on the board. that means there we're five loads leaving that day. that seems quite a bit better than the last time i was in texas a couple weeks before. Is Laredo that much better, is all of Texas getting a little better? We ended up leaving on a tuesday, no load monday after we repositioned friday in fort worth. i'm in a straight truck. any others been in texas a couple times this month?

Laredo speclly it is hard place to go out and the weekend ? You have to have a very good conection to go out from Laredo, TX. We have doing Laredo for 2 years with my housband and wa sgood because we have a conmection in Laredo- brokers and we do auto parts amd get loads from Laredo to Ontario, Canada this was the best line ever, but now we with panther with a T/T and let see what will happend??????????? But if you don't have a conections in TX don't go it is hard place to go out and chep one to............

When we go to Laredo, we always stay put and always had luck getting a good load out of there or they will DH us to Eagle's Pass for a load. You have to remember, in that area, they load late in the day and they load on Saturday's. I am sure, if you would have stayed, you would have been out of there by Tuesday. I know, to some, that would be too long to sit and wait. But if you had a great run(good miles) going into Laredo and you get a great load going out, you made money and did not waste it driving around TX.
We have also had pretty good luck getting out of southern Texas and the loads usually make it worth the wait. We are hoping this will happen to us once again!
