Default Curious....

What is the deal with frieght in California? This year, our company has just not recovered from the general slow down we always see after the first of the year. I don't believe it's a company issue as many of our friends in other companies report the same problem.

I believe it is a California issue because once any of us are lucky enough to get a load out of california, miles are up and loads are plentiful and pay checks are good.

Any ideas? I'm curious more than anything why a slow down in frieght would seem to hit California in general and a nationwide issue.

Thanks in advance for your time and repsonse.
