Some will make the argument that they want freedom from regulation and allow the market place to dictate pricing. Under my vision, the marketplace will set pricing, with the exception of the highly volatile fuel markets. I would also argue that the industry is regulated now. The government tells us how, when and, to a certain degree, where truckers operate. He cited at least five federal agencies that apply requirements to the industry that drive the expense side of the price equation.
Cliff is right on.
Now is the time and fuel is the issue.
