    Your right on but they are always looking for fools and I'm pretty some can't wait to make that phone call in the morning. They are probably mad they can't make that call right now. We must never put are self in a position where we have to run cheap. I know sometimes things happen but it shouldn't be the norm

    I run 25 mile trips from S Atlanta to N Atlanta for $480 a load. Just don't have enough work right now. I joined 123 load board to check out rates. I couldn't imagine driving 730 miles from Ga to Houston TX for $800. They've lost their mind and I promise I'll tell them in the am.

    That's retarded! I can't get pilot cars that cheap, anybody that would run a tractor trailer that cheap deserves to go out of business!

    There will always be loads posted that cheap or cheaper. I don't get why people get their underpants in a bunch over it. It's the way it is and always will be.

    Doesn't mean a guy has to take them.
