Car haulers..


Thats where the real money is these days..

I thought about that route. Then I thought, what's the first thing to go in a major downturn? Cars....

I can't tell where we are now or how things are going to develop. I'm hearing freight rates are beginning to rise, but also freight volume and the numbers of companies going out of business in the 2nd quarter may be worse than the 1st. Who's buying these big SUVs nowadays?

It's interesting, I don't know. We're ready to bounce back or there are going to be more repercussions from the high oil prices, bloated federal debt, lending crisis....

Over time though, yeah, car hauling sounds like a pretty good gig.

I saw a car hauler that had 18 cars on it. They were those really small cars that look like they were cut in half. You can fit 2 of them in each position.

How many miles are you averaging a week?

I've done 36,0000 mile in the 3 and 1/2 months I been here. PM sent!

Think again, they are starving and cutting each others throats., dealers are refusing to pay fuel surcharges.

This is true Maniac, except for the exotic car business. Months ago when my dad was at passport, the customers didn't care what the prices were and still gave $100 tips regularly.

Of course, moving a 67 Vette or new Lotus, those clientel are affected less by prices than those moving a 98 Honda Accord or 2001 Dodge neon :wink:

So, to the OP, yes, haul that expensive manure!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I hafta agree. I say goodbye after I hear any of the following words:

steel coils
lumber
brick

Well...Off to Greenville SC with a dedicated load in a "Genset". 2 week vacation is over and done.
