Met a Mercer step decker couple weeks ago over the weekend in Walcott IA. He dead headed from middle of Ohio for a load in Davenport IA, said he couldn't find a load in OHIO! I thought he must be nuts. He showed me the load board but it was a Sunday so slim pickings. He says guys are jumping ship pretty fast, not enough loads to go around with all the lease trucks.
He should have found something out of Ohio had he waited until Monday. Some Landstar agents post loads on Sunday evening, but most don't post on weekends.
No clue was a bumpy road. Last year on a company truck I broke 3? They told me they are cheap. thanks was about to buy a new one lol.
Lol Im lucky. Grabbed a load 70 miles away. It's gonna put my all miles about 2.45 not bad for going to nd.
