Pete Booty just allocated $88,000,000 dollars to alternative transportation system development (autonomous projects) for the trucking industry. They also allocated an amount toward recruiting additional drivers. Two fold strategy, recruit while you need them but replace with autonomous as soon as possible. Source overdrive.

Here I am dispatching 11 dry vans out of Jacksonville and still doing decent if you got only a few trucks you just need to work harder.

[@robertmartin7633]

I managed to gross $ 12500 in a week, $ 2.48 rpm average with one reefer. Only because I started Monday in California. Two other reefers, just over 10k gross, at just over $2.00 rpm, starting in the mid-west. My van, about $8000 at $1.8 rpm, starting in Chicago on Tuesday night. This week... not so much. I'm struggling, and the stress is absolutely brutal. I have never dispatched in a good market, since I'm new to this, but people keep telling me about the good old days, and I wish I could understand. Trying to keep truckers happy and moving while working with brokers is almost impossible.

[@supertruckertom]

You sound like an honest guy. Best of luck to you. Live long and Prosper. Welcome to the industry.

[@robertbaker6950]

Don’t take it personal with drivers complaining that what we do. And know most people prefer dom and glom and the sky is falling. Just know all markets have ups and downs and we are closer to the bottom right now than the top and in time things will get better than the good old days and then the sky will be falling all over again. So just remember “tough times don’t last but tough people do” the first time I hear that was during the Great Recession.

[@JasonSmith-vd1sz]

I appreciate your honesty whether it’s good or bad. You’re a great KZbinr!

[@ismaelgarza9455]

That Strategy works when you have a few trucks maybe less than 3, But its not a viable option for carriers with 5 plus trucks. There's no way you can be staring at the load board all day, that's Brutal. Got to start getting some dedicated lanes. They are hard to find but is the only way to survive long term without the extra stress.

[@Prodigal1]

It worked (and likely still works)the same way when I was leased on at Landstar. Last few years I was there I had set loads through agents that paid well and didn’t have to be in the position of staring at and refreshing their load board. When I was in that situation it was usually towards the end of the day when last minute loads needing to be covered would pop up with good or great rates and although not as frenzied as the earlier part of the day you still had to jump on it quickly or it would be covered.

[@Prodigal1]

@@Joe-qv6jh sorry to hear that. I keep in touch with a friend who is an agent up in Minnesota and that’s what he tells me, also.

[@Prodigal1]

@@Joe-qv6jh I would love to know more about that, I am back at a company I used to work for as a steering wheel holder and doing my best to replenish my retirement funds drained keeping my last truck afloat.

[@cebuanoguy]

The Fed just cut rates by 50 basis points yester. I'm predicting that these pandemic era new owner operators are going to take on new debt....to keep hauling cheap freight lol. I was hoping that the Fed did not cut rates so we can get rid of these zombie companies. But it looks like the clown show will go on. The show must go on.

[@A_A_Ron_G]

Those idiots will be in a better market picking up a decent load before lunch, while you waste your day, spend a bunch of money, and see the same rates tomorrow.

[@fozman845]

@A_A_Ron_G picking up a load tomorrow 8am - 290 miles same day delivery $1100. Pre-booked another load for Saturday 10am pick up and delivery Monday 7am for 1200. So you and those idiots can enjoy the parking lot. Enjoy the Apples! 🍎

When you show comparison to 5 years avearage volume that was very unusual past 5 years with weak 2019 and super strong 2020-2022 and superweak 2022-2024, I think it would be good idea to compare rates and volumes to 2018.

I spent 10 hours on a load. The broker called apologizing to me for the wait and that he'd pay for the detention. He didn't pay.

[@RomanVarl]

Thank you for the update Miranda!

[@shayanali3981]

I'm quite the opposite of the "wait game". I call it absolutely unnecessary to wait & I'd rather book something picking up two days later because that's what I see happening around me all the time. Good loads don't stick around even if they are picking up a few days later. What do you do with the market that opens around 7-8 am and closes within 2-3 hours? That's what I faced with the Columbus, OH market for DV. I have been booking in advance for about two years now and that's the reason hardly ever the truck stayed empty even during the weekend. Did we book profitable loads? Yes, we did. I'd suggest everyone to grab whatever there is as soon as you possibly can because this brutal spot market won't create a load for you.

[@jamesc2647]

Good afternoon, the info is always appreciated.

The wqiting game didn't work for me. In the afternoon is when the left over loads are being posted for ridicilous rates for the most desperate of carriers thaylt got stuck. Thqlat's why late trucks are doomed and the reason I book early when I can. I don't want to compete with desperate carriers underbiding on loads that pay bad as is. Not worth the time, eneegy and frustration.

My colleagues had a good laugh at me when I told them I started my journey with $50k capital and how I accumulated over 6 figures within a span of 7 months. They never believed me until I pulled out my P&L. I know that learning the ins and outs of the market isn't for everyone, that's why personally, she oversees my investments.
