Internet Truck Stop, DAT.
If you have good rates people will call you.

If you are having trouble finding trucks, you need to raise your rates. I will go about anywhere if the money is right. There are other like minded owners who feel the same way.

Yup! I agree. There is definatly no shortage of trucks, just shippers with a shortage of willingness to pay a reasonable rate. If you have money (good money) you should have no problem finding someone to haul your freight. Just like anything else though, you get what you pay for!
