I have nothing....and those numbers probably don't exist.....but think about it Phil....just for a moment.....where did all the 3 plus loads go before the advent of vans like ours?....

Once the market adjusts to the new rules...I don't really see a big impact...if there is an impact at all....

It has been a steady decline for straights since the advent of the 3 plus CV.....can you imagine how busy you'd be IF we weren't out there....my goodness....:) Not necessarily you Phil...cuz your special....just the common straight driver....

Welcome to FedexCC and EO.....it is tough starting from scratch but it looks like you are learning quickly....Good Luck!...:)

yipper...that is my thinking...even tho when straights lost an hour drive time a few years ago it did not really boost our business noticably....maybe here is hoping losing a half hr will....Actually it will be customers that will have to change their scheduling...

We've all agreed expediting is a small, very small niche in trucking....there are many OTR drivers out there that would drive every hour of that 82 to make money...at .35 a mile. I wish drivers could make a better wage and NOT have to drive 82 hours a week...and some will do it out of greed...

thing is....they can't be totally clean....we without the proper equipment cant get that deep to do a proper job......a Qtip does not do the job.....many crevices and turns in the ear canal before the actual drum...
