you take your RATE - no one is going to pay your TOLL rates - they are built in and you
try and get a rate - taking tolls into consideration - Brokers are paying what they are paying !
SO .. Where is the money - most OO going UNDER

Rates are down but just like in the past it will Improve. Gotta did down deep, run hard, and wehther the storm untill things Improve, and Improve they will. For some, they may have to park the truck, go work for the mega for awhile.

One issue with regards to rates. I just left combo and am driving 6 axle dump now, but last month I pulled a load the broker paid $650 on; said he "couldn't go higher, that's almost everything I have in it."
The BOL had $1,050 for the rate on it.
We need to stop hauling cheap freight, and force the brokers to pay more. If we come together as drivers, collectively, we can force changes in the industry.
I understand a broker takes a cut, but a third of the rate?? That's pure greed. 10% of the lineup should be the max.
Just my opinion
Edit: forgot to mention. Asked about it, he played dumb -
