First off these rates are getting a little out of hand considering price of repairs, insurance, registrations and legal fees, taxes and all are other expenses. Just because of a few cents of fuel savings. Brokers go ahead and speak up ! You want me to run me for 1.60-2.20 a loaded mile, which might be a ok one way rate. At that rate you should have a reload for me. You want me to run cheap do your job, keep me loaded. You don't have a reload, hell it's my problem right. Pay me 2.40 to 3.40 that gives me a little leeway to bounce a few miles, a good 1 way rate but not a bonce rate, thank you I'll find my own reload, were good !!! Need numerus loads hauled pay me, with fuel prices where there at 3.60 + then were at a bounce rate, where every load should be at, because really we all know there is no such thing as a back haul. Well at least my truck doesn't run much cheaper going one way vs the other!!! For all of you Cowboys hauling that cheap freight hurry up and go broke so the rest of us can go back to work ..
Until we all become United or some of them go broke, were all screwed.
One last question, where is the profit on these cut rate loads going ? It's not in O/O pockets and I'm pretty sure it's not in the final destinations pocket.
