@maybedanielleee Thank you for this. It doesn't take away the sting of the money lost, or the pain of spending four years deconstructing my company. Nor does it lessen the challenge of rebuilding with depleted resources. But being seen is deeply validating.

@FreightAlley Is this because illegal capacity is hiding in intrastate?

Craig is correct: Technically, Victory Park is Uptown (north of the Woodall Rodgers freeway wall). As someone who both lives and offices in the downtown core, and who literally had an office in the AAC at this location until the Great Freight Recession fully kicked in, I can say it's pristine compared to downtown proper. It's a loss for the area, but also for those who are leaving. Who wants to relocate to the burbs? Blah. Still, there is enough growth and activity in Dallas that hopefully this site will be reactivated sooner rather than later.

@FreightAlley Are there market areas that are seeing this rate improvement in drayage?

@FreightAlley That’s the number that counts: Line haul before fuel.

@RobCarpenter @IngridBrown803 @ThomasWasson Our team loves using motive for the ELDs and AI dash cams (even though we are having to train the AI cams). They need to stop outsourcing their customer support, however. Their front line support staff know virtually nothing.

Small dray carrier here: We are booked solid until the week of May 8th. The phones are ringing and we've been turning away loads all day long, including from other carriers. (No, thank you.) If these companies had been giving us work before this week at reasonable rates, we could have added to our fleet and provided capacity. But no, they had to book with rotten carriers so they could pay $1.30 per mile. And now, the rotten carriers are falling off their loads and the brokers are going into anxiety over per diem charges.

As a small carrier, I can attest to this. The idea that "good carriers - regardless of size - doing good things will be the winners" ignores the nuance and messiness of the current system. Since roughly 91% of all US motor carriers operate 10 trucks or less, the scoring system should have received attention and been fixed long ago.
