Don't expect a lot of changes till after the election.
If Bernie wins I am going to quit and live off all the freebies.

I'm not too much into politics but does trump really have a chance at being a president?
I figured Bernie or Hillary would win. Thought trump was milking this year for books to sell etc lol -
Nah, I was just joking. I also think that Sanders is going to winFlipflops Thanks this.
-
Sanders will win. It's pretty obvious. Rates arnt going to get better either.
-
Rates for refrigerated isn't much better either. I guess they think since the fuel rate is down, they can drop their rates down to pennies now.

We're headed towards a Recession in 2017 and if Sanders wins, we'll be in a full blown Depression within a year of him assuming office.
It looks like I picked a great time to get into this industry.clausland, freightwipper and tommymonza Thank this. -
I'm still averaging the same. As a consumer I hope fuel keeps dropping. You can go back and read old threads. The same argument when fuel prices was up.

jan,feb,march its always slow.people are broke after the holidays and paying TAXES.usually picks up in april.been that way as far as i can remember.i pulled flat during the summer and in winter pulled refer. winter holidays =food. summer =construction. makes you wonder why that ham for Christmas,was $75+. back in 85, $1.25 mile was good money.
NavigatorWife Thanks this. -
Because they're already making profits on e-logs. Paper drivers have a lot to figure out actually being legal, and many of them won't survive.

My view on the megas.
They have a lot of fixed costs with labor and finance that is tough to pare down in when things go south in a hurry.
Also I think a lot of them were making their bottom lines with fuel savings and FSCs.
Now that fuel is down there is a huge bit of of their profit machine disappearing.
I think there will be a few big megas going down right along side the over financed O/Os.
This will be the market for sometime, a good time to be in a lean and mean condition, if you are not , you are just chasing your tail until you get dizzy and fall down.
This presidential race has been a circus and will turn into a full blown 3 ring Circus in the next 10 months.
If Bernie wins it will make the past 7 years look like heaven.
Trump speaks the truth and I believe he has the Cohanas to back it up , but the man is suddenly suffering from a severe case of Paranoia and Terets
What does that leave us with. Hillary or Cruz? Those 2 can't open their mouths without lying and conniving.
