    Yup everyone is suffering, this morning as I drove thru Elizabeth seaport I saw a 4 mile 3 lines deep line to get into the port as I drove by I laugh because by the time most of them get their first load out I will be done with my day then I cried because I got 2 ####ty loads today ... 2 live loads for a total of 20 miles and about 300 dollars in profit I should be a stripper

    I just sold my truck today. Found a really good non trucking job that I couldn't pass up. It's been a nice last 5 years in intermodal, rates have been falling slowly since May and these new guys will walk in and accept loads without even knowing what they pay.
