    Yep. Pick up in Canada go to the USA drop load. Pick up a new load come back to Canada. Can only touch two trailers, the one there and the one back. Can not touch a third trailer at all. USA drivers follow same rules this side of the border

    Hot Shot has been MISERABLE this year.
    As long as oil is 30 something a barrel I don't see a lot of hope.

    Oil drives the economy. When the price of oil is up the oil companies hire employees buy equipment invest in new leases as well as technology at great wages and the economy grows. As do the oil field support industry.

    The only thing low oil prices help is at the pump.

    The mis belief is lower gas gives the consumer more to spend...... reality is that is only true at the beginning of the oil decline. In reality the longer oil stays low the longer the decline in the overall economy.

    This countries as well as the world's economy is oil driven.
