    So there's a team van load picking up in PA and going to Denver, posted at $2/mile. If that wasn't bad enough, it's hazmat.

    <sigh>

    Yup, still on the board too. And it's not a bottom feeder broker; I ran a $5.20/mile load for them last week. Oddly enough, it was out of the same dead market that I'm sitting in right now lol.

    I would think that a team hazmat load would be paying at least $3 a mile. Even if it is coming out of PA. After all it is an expedited hazmat load.

    Need to times that by 2-2.5. Once you get to Denver you'll probably be deadheading 3-400 miles.

    I'm on the north side of St. Louis, delivering my last stop tomorrow. They're calling for 1-5" of sleet and 1/10" of ice. I might ride it out at the casino :p

    It may end up not being so bad here.
