    It’s a light load!!! Lol. Lately that same load is 45,000 lbs with 8 tarps, 2 picks LOL. Mannn. I’ve really thought about calling on these posts... “hey I’m calling on tge York, pa load to Houston” - “yes it’s still available, it’s 45,000 lbs, 8ft tarp, pays $1800 to the truck” - “oh ok, yeah that’s what I was calling about, I almost spilt my coffee laughing at this load post, I could of burned myself Hahaha” CLICK. And just hang up like a TQL broker would.

    But then I don’t, nice daydream though.

    Yuuup. Shiller Price/Earnings ratios plots out the 4 or 5 full long term business cycles that have occured since 1905 or so.. The boom of the dot com and housing bubbles was never fully purged. It was on its way to the lower endzone that marks a healthy and genuine reset in 2008, but the federal reserve went on a frenzy of buying junk bonds by the railcar to stop it. Just prolongs the correction.

    No one should be "too big to fail". When risky behavior leads to big brother bailouts the system is not allowed to work, at least as I see it.

    That's a 5 day run,even with only 9k ....thats pathetic.. running a truck for 600 a day will put you back to cleaning carpets

    You guys are your own worst enemies.

    Load should be minimum $4200..and thats cheap
