Truck Load Rates Halt 8 Week Slide 2.0

Tail wagging dog would be when somebody loads it to far back on trailer...just think if you put tandems all the way up and 48k on the back and shut the doors... that would be one hell of a ride

 

Sometimes we get weird ones like that. I generally would try to run that in a sprinter, but yeah. I had one where no sprinters or boxes were available (weird pick up) and wound up hiring a team dry van to run a 430lb heater to a nuclear power plant. It was a goofy one.

 

Man, paying taxes right now feels weird, when you see taxpayers money are going into wrong hands

More than $200 billion in unemployment aid may have gone to fraudsters in the pandemic

 

...$4200 this morning for the family of 3.
4 times that out to IRS and the State in the last month and next 4 weeks.

 

And that's just the unemployment part. Imagine how many billions were paid out to fraudsters from the main stimulus, not to mention the hundreds of billions paid to teachers not to teach.

 

Anyone up for a little exercise? I cut off the important details.
17 stop nursery load.

 

It'll take the whole week and a thorough trailer wash out after. How about $1000 per stop...? LOL
We are getting spoiled but what is that money worth these days, anyway?

 

I've seen a ton of these in the last few days. What a joke. I'm not afraid of a little work but that is financial suicide. Not just for all the time you'll lose. I've never been to or seen a nursery that was actually set up to get a 53' in to. Perhaps they exist but not in my experience.

 

I have a former employer begging me to haul some freight for them down to TX from NorCal for $3 per mile on 1700 miles. If there was anything from TX coming back to CA I might consider it, but I refuse to sit down there waiting for days for a low paying load home.

 

Everything is bigger in Texas....... except the freight rate
