    Ya, think its gonna get even worse... my coordinator said more drivers did UPS/FedEx this year than ever before... I dont know how many but all those drivers coming back to pulling flats isnt gonna help any of us...

    Not sure what you guys are on about. I've been steady at $1.85 a rolling mile with the flat since the week after Thanksgiving. That's including some hefty bounces. Hell, I'm doing a 34 right now since I ran my 70 out which I haven't done since July. The Big Money button is cutting in on my operation though lol. Granted, I have been doing a lot more tarping and a few heavy loads, but I've been able to steer clear of any bad weather and slow areas.
