    Freight is abysmal, except for mega companies that planned ahead and haul all types of freight and a few business savvy small fleet owners and business savvy owner-operators.
    None of the above will share their golden goose and secrets to success.

    I don’t see the point in hiring a bunch of new drivers when their going to spend more time sitting then driving.
