It was truly a rough bidding day. I imagine your carrier actually has customers, but our average on the posted loads was not great today. I guess Monday was "cheap, cheap, cheap day".

I had a Detroit earlier that was a last min no go.

Must have been, the couldn't get a Akron to Detroit, and they are real good at getting short runs.

Will the next few weeks be super tough with the lack of automotive freight ?

Murraycroexp · Jun 23, 2014

If there's no auto freight the next few weeks, then yes. That's for sure. I don't know what percentage is auto & truck, but the loads I carried were probably at least 1/2 or more auto & truck parts. Maybe 60-65%.
IMHO

If you've saved up and just trying to find the time to go to Disneyworld, GO NOW! LOL!!

GrassHopperr · Jun 23, 2014

What do you mean by no auto freight for next few weeks?

Murraycroexp · Jun 23, 2014

Finished auto parts.
I actually didn't haul quite that high a percentage if finished parts. Bad guess. Those numbers were probably ALL auto parts, finished or not.
