    I don't get the big deal.

    Go to freight finder and query loads out of NJ to the 40 states or so that will give you plenty of miles; lots to choose from and only took me about 20 min, OR just don't run to NJ anymore. Doesn't have to be a conspiracy lol

    I didn't read your diatribe Atrucker but I can tell you that 'olhand is correct.

    It seems that your angry at DAT because their website tells you that the avg rate out of NJ is $3? Well that has been the subject of TTR threads before. They create those indexes from data and we all know that data can and will be manipulated by people who stand to gain.

    Those rate indexes are for SUCKERS.

    The persecuted mentality is strong with this one. In all seriousness, if I were brokering a load and you called me and presented yourself the same way you do here, I'd tell you I didn't need your services either. You're not doing a good job as salesman. Which is a pretty important hat to wear, for the owner operator....

    Let's cut the Bullshi*** out , apparently the answers here are, for the support of the behind the scene tras*** and, trying to persuade the general public to believe that there is problem with the hard working trucker who is picking up the load and running with it and always did just that on time professionally. But some how the market does not matter in this business, as it does in any other business. That is biggest BS and it can’t be from a smart fella. Also trying to make an impression that, the reason why he can't make any money and book a reasonable load, from any strong market is, not the trassss*** behind the scene, or the phone interception, it is the him for not cursing out at the brokers, who offer below the cost rates, even out of Columbia SC. where currently, there are 9 loads to one truck. As many people I know who can’t speak English or know any thing about freight market, are doing well because of the demand. Here is how I have posted the truck since last week, and also attached is how the market looks like today.
    Some one here trying to support the gang said I have been asking $6/mile out of NJ that is a lie. Apparently they do not realize that the gang who is after me can go after any punk at any time?????

    It is clear from the posting that I have posted the truck for very conservative, and minimal possible rate $2.55/mile. That run goes through, bridges tunnels, tolls, Washington DC and Richmond VA traffics. Any one who has ever done this lane can tell you that this rate ($2.55 which I am asking) is under the market average and unbeatable in the, 3.27 loads / 1 truck, with load density at 2220 loads in 100 mile radius and posting rate at 40 posts per minute, and 20k + loads posted weekly. Any one who disagree with the above statement either, has no clue about how this market or any other market works or is a manipulated slave of the behind the seen gang of some kind...................

    No-one here wants to hear of or see another trucker have a rough go of it atrucker. I feel for you brutha but have no idea how in the world anything would help your situation. Been offering advice for a couple of years now and that's the best I could do. Have to believe at some point anyone out here who hung in there long enough could make a contact here and there that they could make a decent living off of. But I guess sometimes it ain't so for whatever reasons.

    9 loads for every truck in SC? You write that like it's gospel. Did you not heed my earlier post? Stop being a sucker. Suckers deserve what they get. Stop going into NJ because the indicies tell you to.

    If 10 brokers post the same 1 load is there 10 loads/truck?
