    Where's the freight flowing from and to now, I've been busy out in the east coast but now I'm stuck in the LA to Phoenix area and can't seem to get out here with a good load. So what part of the country is the freight moving. :biggrin_25520:

    Nowhere it seems. I've talked to many drivers that are sitting long hours and sometimes days waiting for loads. I've been fortunate to keep rolling and it's so far so good with me. I hope it get's better.

    There is a little freigh moving every where, but the problem is the cheap rates.

    I was running pretty good, 2500 to 3000 miles a week, up to the 4th of July, that was running mostly the east coast and south. Now I'm lucky to be getting 2k a week running the south west and west coast. Go figure.:biggrin_2554:
