My family goes back to horse drawn transportation. There was a higher profit potential before deregulation. Everyone cried then. 1980 and after cost has risen and profit has narrowed.
Any of these pole smokers hauling for 1990's dry van rates at a 1.35cpm need not to F this up for us that have adapted and found ways to make it work.
I'm on about day 56 with my truck park? IDK anymore. Gonna go polish the fuel tanks. I have no guarentee that I will make it out of this. But I'm not wearing out my horse to just scrap by. I'd rather go broke in the driveway!
Maybe we can change the convo to "making it up with volume"
