    In all how many trucks in the flatbed niche could I have and only run freight from the load boards to cover them before there’s not enough freight from the load boards to cover the amount of trucks I have?

    I feel like it’s going to be hard to get direct shopper contacts

    You are correct. So why on earth would you want to try 50 on load boards?!?! Do you have 50 or are you making plans?

    Well, cancel your plans. If you have that kinda money you’d be better off burning it.
