Truck Load Rates Halt 8 Week Slide 2.0

Good job. Keep up the good work.

 

Hold on, this is usually the best week of the year for freight. Did you guys get excited and think that from now on the freight market will stay good?

 

No, I never implied that. My point is that businesses are picking up. People are going back to work. That's a good thing, no?

 

Those are typically in the $5 to $6 mile range.

 

The Volvo special ends at the end of the month.

The dealer manager, Volvo rep, and Cummins rep were all having a nice shouting match, cause I said I'd take one, but can't make it up there until the 8th at the earliest.

So, we'll see. I like this one.

 

My T680 is dark blue, and if I had it to do over again I'd get a lighter color, just not white. Dark blue gets really hot inside the truck. Need something a bit more reflective.

 

I like the tan one too.

 

How much on those all included. What warranty package you thinking?

 

Im tingly in the britches right now, I’ll tell you what. lol

As long as we see a fall off of capacity as PPP runs its course, the rates will continue to gain traction. Post July 25th will be telling as well. This is when a lot of sidelined drivers lose their high dollar unemployment and rejoin the market. I anticipate being able to find new drivers easier after then. I see a slow steady rise all the way through fall with rates.

 

Those Volvos pull good. I was impressed with mp8 445s at 100k moving frac pumps around.
