I'd say it picked up

Wow! Sorry i haven't been on here much, but I have to turn down loads to get time to wash the truck! I've been running nonstop these past 2 weeks. From 500 miles runs to 4 short runs in one day. (the only time I had to sit was when I lost a water pump on this past Saturday) Is everyone else having the same kind of fun as me?

Glad you are up and running. Short of a couple of days after Memorial day, we have been busy since the first of the year. Keep our fingers crossed that it continues.

I've been seeing quite abit of expedite freight being hauled here in the metro detroit area, i seen probably 6 trucks/vans on my way back from work and thats not including the other "smaller" companies i seen. Hope the freight keeps moving till and past the end of july, hate to jump in and sit.

Drive safe and keep those wheels turning.

How many then, did you see returning from work including, the "smaller" Companys? What is a "smaller" Company? And, do they not count in your assessment?

They could be heading home or they could be heading out. most the ones i seen were going west on 94 up around the New Baltimore area (11 miles north of detroit border in a kinda rural area) which is kinda out of the freight area i feel unless comming from Port Huron. I didnt count the little companies because a few didnt have any markings and other are like Rodriguez Trucking ect. Before today i would be lucky to see a "major" expedite company truck in a week so i figure that the business must be picking up.

I know, I know. But, if you were look'in over a sand dune, and were waiting for that "big" cat with the automatic weapon, wouldn't you kinda like to know about that "little" old lady with the dynamite straped to her also? It's all part of a decent assessment of the situation.
