    Did anybody actually read the .80 was leaving the Northeast?
    Do people know about markets and supply/demand?

    I don't remember. I usually use my RM until I get close to the customer, then I use them both. Jill gets a little crazy en route, whereas my RM uses common sense and puts me on the better roads.

    Nice numbers. Smh..In my example I bounced you to a load paying $2/mile. If you claim that rate can't support bouncing 500 miles, then you just proved my point. It's a waste of time and resources. After all this discussion I've never even mentioned how you blow 8-9 hrs of line 3 time DH'ing that far too.

    I wouldn't bounce 500 for a 2.00 it doesn't support the activity. Which is why I stated my understanding of your lack of belief because in your exsample you used numbers that wouldn't support the dh
    So therefore I haven't proven your point.
    Your quote further illustrates that you have a comprehension issue .

    I really didn't think this could get anymore amusing.

    DOES ANYONE HAVE ONE OF THOSE EMOJI THING A MAJIGS OF A DEAD HORSE BEING BEATEN.

    I know all about freight markets, I've studied them since i started this trucking thing back in 95. and the economic principles of supply and demand. Over satuated supply and low demand is why i don't pull a van.
