    The rates are still at a doable level. As long as you can come up with combination of $5-6K revenue per 6-7 days, then nobody is going out of business any time soon. Maybe that's just a little bump.

    It does indeed remind the final week before the shutdown last year. It just does not have sense why would load volume start dropping drastically this time of the year, especially for reefers

    Don't worry, if things get really bad, you guys can hook up with USA Truckload, from what I've read they pay gangsta level.

    When you are used to $8k on 2500 miles Mon-Fr, it will feel horrendous to drop back to $5k lol

    I don't know what's your deal and desire to be a smart ###. We have been discussing market conditions in this thread for a while now. Everyone who usually posts has been through few boom/bust freight cycles and nobody is crying about it
     
    Scooter Jones Thanks this.

    It was you that enaged him. Isn't it easier to ignore someone and move on than waste energy letting words you don't agree with rile you up? If your assertions are correct, you played right into his hands. If not, well...I'll leave that one alone.
