Explain to me what 'real numbes" are. Just like your 180K you made last year? I'm confused. Speccom is where its gonna be in '08 (in our niche field). The Their lowest paid drive 1099'd 190K on 80K miles. 2 guys broke 300K, but have extensive rigging capabilities. I'm told its 90-120K miles, and the money is there.
Rev, we can't go on togtether...with suspicious minds 8)

You know, Steve, if you ever get bored of having your own authority, you can always go to United. They have a small fleet of 30 or so flatbedders

So, 2-2.50 a mile isn't possible with an agent that books 95% of their own tonnage? I'm confused, or not. The unload times are a pain, but so is household. I already asked if I have to wait for a tradeshow to end, and they said rarely. In metro areas, they have bookings coming out asap and another driver hauls it out when possible. Their slow months are a narrower window than hhg. Eyebrows raised or not, I don't care. Maybe my Dad can share his numbers doing enclosed cars too and raise some eybrows.
HHG is dead, and the carriers did it to themselves.

Wow. Many of you think I'm co-signing for the Rev's big bunk :lol: On the other hand, many more think I'm going to England. 8)
The latter option is more probable, not that the rev doesn't have a special spot in my heart :wink:
