And on top of that it was the persons choice to pay $78,000 for a dry van, thinking that high rates were going to last in the spot market. 9 years I been at it (16 years total driving) and at no point did I grow my business because the spot market was booming. Nor did I jump into trucking to get rich quick like most of the new authority’s in the last 3 years.
Brokers, Please explain the plummeting rates these days.

Who is buying a dryvan for 78? I feel for them!! I bought a 22 Great Danereefer trailer with biggest carrier for 76.

Or even better, if it's so easy just join the club. I'm sure a bright guy like you will be sleeping in a big bed, showering like crazy, brushing your teeth in the nicest of sinks, and making big bucks in no time.Midwest Trucker Thanks this. -
If $6 fuel means $6 a mile then why weren’t these guys moving loads for $2 when fuel was $2 during Covid? Fair is fair, right?
