So, you do not support a free market economy? Just curious, what economic system do you support?

western distribution out of denver has blue trucks that scream "BLING BLING!" wherever they go. when their drivers are sitting, which by the way, isn't uncommon, they're sitting in style, yo!

ScotLynn (Sp?) trucks always look clean and have a cool graphics scheme.

I'm no longer in the biz, but TMC came into at least two of my customers and gutted the rates. And I mean gutted, to well under $1.40 a mile when we were regularly pulling those loads for $2.50 to $3 down to the back woods of GA.

Reading comprehension my friend, is apparently not your best suit.

How the hell do you get that out of my comment?

TMC has a right to undercut freight and haul below operating costs and they also have a right to go belly up and I have a right to dance and shout when they do.
