Flatbed freight

u guys think after shut down freight will be good again

 

I think it will be good again. BUT it will take a couple years to recover.

With the election this fall, that ads to the uncertainty, as every election year does.

I hope I'm wrong. I just don't see a lot of the businesses returning to work very quickly. The system doesn't have the raw goods or parts to make the things Americans like to buy.
Also a lot of people are gonna hold on to what little money they have. Waiting for round 2. That may or may not come.

I only have to kick the can a couple more years. Could probably make it to SS without working if I had too.

I sure hope we and the world rebound, because no one recovers unless we all do.

 

I hear the refrigerated guys went In and cut the rates?

 

For all practical purposes from what I see, Dry Van Freight is off a cliff, also. Just some scraps left, being fought over.Drastic Change in last 3 days.

 

Did you ever get out of AZ?

 

Even on a good day I have a pretty cynical sense of humor, but human behavior the last few weeks has definitely brought out the worst in me. Lol

 

Well played.

 

I work for Sunbelt rentals and I got sent home at 11 am yesterday so I didn't go into overtime. That has never happened before. No rental company will need an outside contractor hauling for them right now, sorry to pee on your parade☹️
But minus Corona, that's not a bad gig.

 

200 miles for $5k ? that's a little hard to belive , was that OD loads or special equip
