    Did the dryer itself break or the bolts holding it?

    Actually it's a private forum, you guys want to run cheap, run around in ten year old truck, eat ramen noodles all week and bathe with baby wipes and say everybody else is doing it wrong go ahead.

    You're a moron. Evidently you didn't comprehend anything I wrote. I never said I ran for cheap. We don't all need the same amount of money to be profitable. Just because you have to have $3 a mile to make money doesn't mean I do. I can run for cheaper and be profitable, which is good because $3 a mile freight doesn't exist right now. No need to get your panties in a was just because people can run cheaper than you. I don't have a paid off truck, I don't eat cheap, and my showers are free.

    I'll never know why jerks like you come around and tell others how to run their business. Worry about your own, that's all you can control.

    You make my point, if Ford can’t sell cars they lower the price, if the freight sits on the dock the price goes up, if there is 100 available trucks and no takers the price goes up.if the lane traditionally pays 3 bucks and you take it for 2 bucks you’re cutting your own throat

    Resorting to name calling...how third grade of you.

    That's a fantasy.....rates on lanes are dynamic, change weekly, daily, and even hourly. Its all about supply and demand. And if he takes that $2/mile a load to get back to his dedicated customer and its profitable for him, how is it cutting his own throat? Should he fail his customer hoping for the rate to go up tomorrow or the next day? Does he not incur cost by sitting? Or should he take the cheapest of all freight and deadhead out?
    This notion of there is a magic "cheap freight amount" is preposterous.... Maybe he's better than you, better efficiencies, and can run at a lower rate per mile....
