    Freight must be booming over here, I came out of the house Tuesday and I’m booked on 4 loads to get me through next Tuesday. Dropped at a home depot DC in Joliet, Illinois (total CF), they had me bobtail out of there to a Great Dane plant in Illinois to pick up a new trailer. Reload in the morning in Romeoville going back to Lincoln. Then pick up a preloaded trailer in Crete going down to Hartsville, Georgia for a live unload Saturday night. Then reload in Georgia going Back to Des Moines for Tuesday.

    @runningman0661 from what I read is that there’s A capacity crunch happening lots of carriers are rejecting loads because they don’t have the capacity to Haul it and I have seen Freight volumes double and triple in certain areas from normal

    Could be, or just another load. If it is your reworked load I hope all the bad ju ju is gone.

    Anyone running the Midwest regional? Talked to Scott the recruiter and it sounds pretty good, I just wanted to hear a drivers experience. I live south of Indy.

    Not regional but I’ve had a great experience here so far... still adjusting a bit but it’s been a great month and I see no reason to expect that to change.

    Go For It!!!
     
    Drifter42 and runningman0661 Thank this.

    Well you're not gonna believe this but I was just involved in an accident as well. 4 wheeler lost control in the rain right after he passed me and I didn't have time to slow down so I bumped him as he was spinning out. I'm okay, the 4 wheeler is okay, but I don't know about my truck. Bumper is completely off and radiator is leaking.
