Are things picking up ?

I don't think it's just you. DH isn't sitting as long and he's been getting better loads. I guess we'll just have to wait and see if it continues.

 

its trying to show a little life out here not much tho...

i pull a step the next cpl months will tell with spring coming

jan and feb are generally tough times anyway if it stays like this through april alot of ppl are gonna be in trouble

 

I was in Texas Louisiana area last week and saw 30+ flatbeds in a T/A all empty sitting for a day or two. My trainer and I were steady with loads though, cheap ones but at its something.

 

i was in louisiana last week and every single load i seen was going to texas

 

Every TMC truck i've seen in the past two months has been empty and sitting. Theres 4 truck stops within 30 miles of the house and they seem to group up around here.


Then again, it is Michigan.

 

I saw a few other TMC trucks with loads coming out of Houston area, and we managed to get a low paying shingle load to get out of the area there.

 

I think that things will pick up this spring, then freight prices will go up also, what scares me is what is the price of fuel going to do?

 

unfortunately when things pick up it tends to follow
