    What’s the news on truck stops? I hear some of the truck stops are full of abandoned equipment.

    As far as loads, a friend of mines is a production manager at an egg company. He said the “load orders” are going down, but volume at production is still going. So my conclusion is that there’s still loads, but instead of having 8 stops in 1 load, it’s a full delivery to 1 customer...

    Long haul is looking strong, I don’t know about LTL and Short haul. Opinions guys?

    If your friend didn’t offer you a job, I’d go shopping elsewhere.

    don’t put all your eggs in one basket.

    and truck stops are just that “stops”
    If those wheels ain’t turning you ain’t earning!

    call some brokers, get on the load boards, better use of your time than sitting around the counter, very depressing too. Lots of negative talk.
