So looking at the rates for these loads just seems like there isn't any money in livestock hauling. Just doing the math a little seems like there paying just barely above $2 a loaded mile. If your lucky you'll find $2.50 a loaded mile. I hope Iam doing my math wrong or just not doing something right. Somebody help out with this math thanks.. By the way Iam not hauling cattle yet, just hanging out looking from the bench.
