    Define wealthy. Can you put a number such as annual gross income to your definition? My standard of living has improved over the last 2½ years. As for people living paycheck to paycheck, that's a common occurrence no matter what the annual income. Its more of a spending beyond one's means...

    Hopefully the "Forgotten Democrats" will remember it was the Republicans under Trump that improved their standard of living.

    Cutting back to two martinis at lunch would help.

    Loads going cheap lately?

    Stay inside the 250 mile radius if that's where the customers are. When you are offered a load outside that area, ask for extra money up front to get you back toward St. Louis.

    Likewise! I've met with that guy you are married to a few times, but never you.

    Loads going cheap lately?

    I'm on a fixed rate per mile and a variable fsc. Currently running at .94/mile including fsc and only .14/Deadhead mile. This for a cargo van.

    58% Bolt Express, why's nobody talking about this?

    58%, 70% it could be all the same. The question is, 58 or 70 percent of what? When I ran percentage my carrier had published tariffs. I got 58.5% of the published tariff. But that was the late 1990's. A different era.

    BOOM

    Don't blame Amazon for setting low rates. As long as there are truckers willing to run for low rates, low rates will continue.

    Cargo Van Clean Van

    My Transit sucks when it comes to washing and waxing. These long and tall vans have way too much painted acreage. When I sold my 2004 Chevy the body was still in excellent shape and certainly didn't show that the van had 820,000 miles on it. Wax your van a couple times a year with a quality...

    " Do I have to say more?" Certainly not. Your experts have rendered me fingerless. Back in the day I read science fiction, Future Schlock, Micro Millennium etc. While their broad cast net captured the essence of their predictions, rarely did they hit the mark, especially with timing.

    I realize this post belongs in the Panther Premium Logistics forum but nobody reads that forum so I posted this here. I feel the need to share what it is like to be me. Selfish yes, but please indulge me. I just spent a half hour replying to Panther's annual survey courtesy of staymetrics...

    Is there a timeline for the 30%-40% unemployment rate? I guess it could start in 2021 if the Democrats regain the Senate and the White House. Many Americans will be out of work but at least they can attend college for free.

    Just don't go to Canada. ;) How does the ferry price compare to the bridge toll?

    Sorry, I forgot about the Clinton Foundation. I also forgot about "their" National Home Ownership Strategy allowing people who had no business owning a home to qualify for sub-prime loans. Yeah, what's really going on? Talk to me, so I can see Oh, what's going on What's going on Yeah, what's...

    Electric Ford Transit on the horizon.

    How do Teslas generate enough cabin heat in sub zero temperatures? If from an auxiliary electric heater the mileage will take a hit.

    I said nothing about Trump being a humanitarian. Re-read my reply to your post. You said: "...the Clintons care about humanity including the poor and those who fall between the cracks," I thought that was funny but sad if you truly believed it. Apparently you do believe it. The bridge...
