CARB & RFID tag

100k wont touch a nice new paccar sleeper....my 08 was 138k new spec'd out....

 

haha redd dont want noboby messing with the deal he has which is understandable...until it applies to him...

 

o of course and the old trucks will be a dime a dozen...it will have the truck market looking lik 5$ fuel all over again

 

Maybe it's because I'm from the rust belt, but imagine all the rust free older trucks that will be selling cheap!

Seeing as the ban only applies to the port, it won't be extremely widespread, but it will probably have an effect on the market.

 

Well I know a couple of people in the container business and here's how they're working it.

They use a marshalling yard and compliant trucks to haul from the port to the marshalling yard.

It doesn't matter who picks up from the marshalling yard because it's not in the port.

loophole.

yes but as redd stated they charge several hundred dollars per load for a service such as this.....that really affects the bottom line...

 

They are attempting to kick out the single O/O who has their own authority & 1 truck. I am leased to a major carrier... I am running under their numbers... We haul hundreds of loads in & out of the ports on a weekly basis. We won't be affected.

And that is why you are suppose to negotiate your rate with brokers & shippers. You get that money going in or have it stated on your rate confirmation sheet that the shiper/broker pays the fee...
