    Cargo Van Will we be able to work through Coronavirus?

    Yup! I was just reading an article (you probably read the same thing) as to why this could be so much worse here than in other countries - and your 2 points were their two points.

    Coronavirus disrupts freight, price of oil; U.S. impacts could be ‘substantial’

    One of our drivers just got to VW in Chattanooga - they are closing until.....? The National Emergency declaration won't prop up the stock market once industry starts to close. Sent from my moto z3 using EO Forums mobile app

    Coronavirus disrupts freight, price of oil; U.S. impacts could be ‘substantial’

    You're assuming that the decision maker who ordered the shipment will ever see who picks it up, or care, because they did their part and moved on. In 5 years of grabbing team loads, (we are a team), only once has a shipper asked to see both drivers. NO SHIPPER has ever come out to look at the...

    If you want to see panic on Wall St wait untill the first BIG manufacturer shuts plants - Ford, GM, GE, United Technologies, etc. I'm of the opinion that we are over reacting, but, I may be wrong and I won't mind it if I am. Sent from my moto z3 using EO Forums mobile app

    I may have misread, but, OPEC & Russia had an agreement to hold production down to keep prices up. My read was that Russia withdrew from the agreement because we (USA) were getting too much of a boost from better pricing. Russia has committed to increase their production and exports and now...

    Thinking of returning to this business

    What Fasty said! Rates sinking, way more time between decent loads. That being said, if you have a primary income source (SS, pension, etc.) Then it's doable, but, at minimal investment. No vehicle payments help. Finally, other than the fact that they don't float, Transits have been "major"...

    Last couple trips up to Seattle we had a LOT of trouble getting out. Cali still holds well for teams. Texas is getting useless now. Houston OK, we stay away from Laredo but DFW has become a fight on rates. Friday AM Sylectus showed almost 50 Vans/Sprinter/Small Straight. Sent from my moto z3...
