Lol, we are definitely in wrong business lol. Now back to the percentage thing, when I was buying my first truck 1 1/2 years ago I was leased to people buying truck from and I was getting 80% of gross, and 100% fuel surcharge, minus truck payments and insurance. It started off well and each week I would get load confirmation copies with each check then it started dwindling along with my pay. Needless to say I crushed few loads of cars (primarily car crusher) and paid truck off and told him to stick his authority in his ass. Best thing I ever did. Ever since then I've had own authority.

My dispatch service charges 7% and load factoring is included in the 7%. I receive payment on my loads as soon as they receive the Bill of Lading.

Scott, Fred and sjmay, you guys don't have an email address that combines the word "brunette" and the magic number "69" into one mysterious combination that might lead me and my overactive imagination to think that there might someday be a tiny chance that you'd let me give you more than just 9% of my "business".

LOL Music, if that's what it takes, I could probably arrange that, lol but seriously, I just started in the business, if you want to blame anyone, blame GMAN, I got most of my advice from him lol

For under 2% of my gross, you could get my attention and my business if I ever found myself in need of dispatch services.

If my wife ever gets tired of my bitching and quits on me, I might consider using your services, no brunettes required, although I might be willing to pay a premium for a redhead.
