You guys hauling around 4.50 or less are hurting everybody including yourself and if you’re leased on to someone and don’t realize 15% or 17% on 50-75 cents isn’t much money to the guy who owns the trailer but it’s a lot to the guy who’s owns the truck, if this doesn’t make sense to you than you might want to rethink what you’re doing | REPLY REPLY WITH QUOTE |

I've always been told that no hand should ever run his truck for a mileage rate that is less than the cost of a gallon of fuel. | REPLY REPLY WITH QUOTE |

I 100% percent agree. If it doesn’t pay $5.50 a mile, with an 100 mile minimum and prorated over 50,000 pounds my trucks are sitting in the barn. We see these guys cutting the rates and in a years time they are broke, their equipment is worn out and they don’t have enough money to fix it. | REPLY REPLY WITH QUOTE |
