Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!!

Hey Scott,
Are you adding a driver in your truck or leasing on an O/O? If it is a driver, pay him in the 36 cpm range and you can offer him some incentives (call me for some ideas). If its an O/O, I know another guy hauling your freight and he is paying $1.05pm plus the FSC, he has the trailer expense etc. I recommended an 80-20% split, he went with mileage and has been keeping them running. Glad to see you're bringing on another one.
