    now a backhaul is typicaly refered to as a load that takes you right back home, but in reallity it's freight from a cheap martket. Generaly speaking, loads from these areas pay dick, as there's 2 loads for every 3 trucks. Which is why some loads get well over $3.00 TTT going INTO these areas.

    I've alotta respect for ya southernpride, but come on, you certainly should understand trucking supply and demand freight rates by now, especially being from Florida.

    I sure have to agree with 550 W900L and Southernpride 100%, and I cannot understand why all the networks make such a big deal about what happens in Calif. like the wildfires, floods, earthquakes, etc., I mean who really cares, except the people who live there. I love the good old USA all 49 states.

    Because before the EPA...There was CARB......
    As I have discussed before...like or not...So goes California...So goes the nation...

    This isn't the 70's with a "California Car" and a 49 state car".......These new rigs although based on Calis regs... are what you all will be running....

    That being said...and the fact that I'm am picking up my new rig on Monday.....
    By God, Cali better enforce it's CARB regs now....I had to be compliant and so should everybody else...including the NAFTA rigs that our government is so in love with...
