    At noon today RGN loads are down 33% from their normal nationwide count weekly at the same time. Normal nationwide count averages right at 1100, today - 733. Not good.

    Could that have something to do with Labor Day being next Monday tho?? I know a lot of states will not allow OS loads to run on holiday weekends and such.

    I was offered a 22 ft long 35k lb "partial" today. I guess because it doesn't take up all of the deck space they think it's a partial.
