Starving this year?

I think ES soes have some tractor trailers. I was told they once had a bunch on with Allstate, but not sure where they run them now.
I think this end of Dec beginning of Jan will be a bit slower than last year. The auto makers are much more aligned with the plant shut downs to all fall in the same 2 or 3 week period this year. For the guys who have been around a while, this is the old "normal" as far as the shutdown and season goes. Even if you don't do automotive, it effects the industry and the expedite market as a whole.

ES did have a few. I picked up a tractor that had been wrecked and drove it to Memphis so that a new team could pick it up. I believe it was leased to Panther.
