    Hey guys. I'm currently sitting in Cheyenne with my thumb up my arse looking for loads. So I came across this. I thought you guys might get a kick out of it.

    I think I will deadhead to SLC before I lower myself to these levels. And why is this happening? Because you have absolute morons out there who accept these rates. 1000005047.jpg 1000005046.jpg

    You'd be in SLC before you could get loaded.

    Turn it

    Co is always a deadhead area when I am in that state. Never even waste time to look except while I am driving out!

    Of course. I'm going to stay one more night here because the fog has been pretty bad. If nothing good pops up in the morning, I'm heading to SLC empty. I'd rather lose $150 in fuel than let these shysters make more money than me. Christ, they are not even offering the posted 30-day average (which we all know is BS to begin with).

    Waiting ain’t gonna change anything. Why waste your time trucking in that part of the country?

    And yeah Giltner is a bottom feeder. I think they've got a fancy branch office in Chattanooga, TN. There's a bunch of different freight brokers with high dollar trendy office buildings in Chattanooga within walking distance of the aquarium.

    The fog has been pretty bad up here. I don't really want to roll through it if I don't have to.
     
    Siinman and TheLoadOut Thank this.

    Jeepers. That's pretty terrible.

    Pulled $3/mile out of SLC to ATL legal load last week, home for a reset - ATL now.

    I wonder if anybody actually pulls that at that rate.
