    We're all gonna die! Err, The Sky is Falling!

    Seriously, at this point does it really matter? What with most people hauling for peanuts.

    On the bright side this could be the perfect storm that puts a lot of wannabes`out of their misery.

    I know, wishful thinking. It's probably going to take a few years to weed them out.

    Nobody knows nothing! What happened to all those prophets promising 4-5 dol per mile as recent as 18 months ago? I advise everybody keep doing their thing.

    Who says this thread will be a gloomy one? It does have a question mark - to me it is a sign of hope.

    All we have to do is to deny what FreightWaves say.

    Exactly!!!

    I keep hearing about a slow down, yet I only continue to get busier.

    Its not unlike the driver shortage I keep hearing about, yet an endless stream of applicants keep applying.
     
    TallJoe and QuietStorm Thank this.
