Freight was slow for me from November to the end of December. But now it seem to be going up the past few weeks I’ve been given loads going nomore than 300 miles paying between 2.75 and 4.50 a mile

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

Enjoy those loads for sure but I’m not real picky again I don’t turn down loads souly on money

Shoot for all the guys coming out of TNT you need to run every load Prime gives you for your first year regardless. Because if you run every single load you’ll learn the customers and learn the different markets around the country and learn the lanes that you like. Yeah it’s a bit slow right now but like everyone says it will come back. Just don’t do any unnecessary spending, get a cheap fridge and hit Walmart for food. Truck stops are to expensive. live on the minimums and Prime will keep you profitable. 👍 keep it safe!

I totally agree with you. I came out with a shoe string and a dream.

It always slows down till about the end of March and then it's barbecue season

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

Oh I’m not complaining but it still good money

[@SlowPokeTruckingLLc]

I’m on hometime right now but you’re right. I and my classmates have been taking 34s with loads with extra time. But I’m not turning down anything and still hitting my comfortable numbers.

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

I’ve only had one load that allowed me to take a 34 and I really did t have to I just figured I’d run it in on top of the 90 and reset my clock which usually sets up a good load cause you have a fresh 70

[@nohippietruckingandtransportat]

The market will come back. It's winter more than anything as far as time on loads I think

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

I get it. I’m having my 3rd biggest week this week. But I listen to the chosen one and his cousin Terry lol

[@overloadedoutdoors7582]

Hey bud what do you mean by taking a 34 I have no clue when it comes to anything like that

[@AM0908]

After a certain amount of hours in a certain amount of days you cant drive anymore until you take 34hrs off then your clock resets and you get all your hours back. it be a lot to type out, might find a video on explaining, but you can run your time all the way out, or drive under 10 hrs a day because you start to get time rolled back over if you dont hit that 70hrs

[@overloadedoutdoors7582]

@@AM0908 thanks for the explanation make sense now

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

When your 70 clock is used up and you don’t have the recap hours to add on to it. You have to take a 34 break which is called a reset. It’ll reset your 70 clock
