    Wasn’t arguing
    Was just stating that just because one person can’t make it doesn’t mean the next one won’t

    So many on this forum have nothing better to do than be negative
    I’m not saying one should or shouldn’t do anything but when rates were higher guess what. The time was wrong because equipment was higher
    Everyone said to wait for the fire sale

    Now that the tide has shifted they say wait until rates are up

    My point is that no time is ideal for everyone
    But if a person has cash to ride it out or a better lead on loads does that make him at the same risk as the guy who has $20 and no savings and a new CDL?
     
    Badmon, cke, AgPilot1 and 2 others Thank this.

    Loads are cheap. I've been home since beginning of November. I'm not running for 2.50 average.
