    The answer to your question is you should have known that before you bought a truck. I’d suggest you keep a Family Size tub of KY handy to get you over the learning curve. If your money lasts long enough.

    trucking is recession proof. It’s a multi-billion dollar industry.

    Dry van freight average just dropped a buck-twenty per mile in the last month.

    The oilfield is a multi billion dollar industry as well, and it's a non stop cycle of boom and bust, feast and famine.

    Why are you on here looking for freight? Just go get it from the people that ship stuff. Plenty of freight from the people shipping an it is not 2 dollar freight.

    No it’s when the brokers get their slimy fingers in it that it turns into $2 freight. Most of it pays $4 or $5 shipper direct.
