    Well, this is more a global economy thing....what gets me is the general public does not seem to be feeling what we've (truckers of all lines: Intermodal, flatbed, dry van, reefer, tanker) have been seeing since last year....

    I dunno man. It's just ####ing abnormal! Like WTF!

    But it's funny........ dryvan..reefer..flatbed/stepdeck...air freight.. containers.. it's all in the #### HOLE! But it seems like container companies are the guys who are actually doing a #### thing ...

    unless you wanna run for 90 cents a mile on dryvan or reefer, LOL
     
    RERM and 4noReason Thank this.

    It's not about lack of work, the line haul has taken a hit. All the shipping companies have lowered their rates and it's affecting our gross. No choice but to take it, since so many other drayage companies are running for peanuts.....Were still better off than most, but it's getting tight....
