Warning GM STRIKE

Very little as very little of Murray's book of business comes from the automotive industry. That being said, as an individual O/O, I have set a high (prohibitive) minimum for border freight.

I can't remember if I've done a GM load this year, but I can feel something changed. I'm in Texas, an I wasn't able to get a decent paying load for 2 days. Plenty offers though.
I finally got what I consider a cheap load, but I have been told I did pretty good. Straights are getting out of Texas for a buck a mile. I replied that I won't. I would drive home and park the truck.

I guess those people that did GM loads now are doing other loads and the rates are in the crapper just to keep moving.

The last GM plant I delivered to was Lordstown and that was well over a year ago. Come to think of it, that was probably the last auto plant that I have delivered to, not counting Oshkosh Truck. I may have delivered to some GM suppliers though. Panther doesn't do much automotive freight. At least I don't seem to get much.
