Road miles are measured on the driving network, not straight-line. Ranges are what the lane is paying this week for a standard operable sedan on open transport — an estimate to plan against, not a quote. Oversize, inoperable and enclosed price above these.

How we work with dealers →
The board went quiet this week, and rates followed it down. Seven of the twelve lanes paid less than last week, three held flat and only two paid more. That combination usually reads the same way: with fewer loads on offer the trucks already in position compete for what is there, and the discounting shows up first on the lanes carrying the most of them. Miami handed back part of last week's jump — New York to Miami eased about 8% to $1100–$1250, though it is still the busiest lane on the board, and Boston to Miami held at $1200–$1350. Those two are where waiting a few days is most likely to pay this week.
The Los Angeles split has closed. For two weeks the long hauls into LA eased while the run back out firmed; this week it went the other way — Chicago to LA is the biggest riser on the board, up 14% to $1100–$1300, while Los Angeles to New York came off about 5% to $1650–$1800. The likeliest reading is that the pool of trucks sitting in Southern California has thinned, so westbound stops being the buyer's market it has been. Measured per road mile — the fair way to set an 800-mile lane against a 1500-mile one — Atlanta to Dallas pays best at about $1.11 a mile and Houston to LA thinnest at about $0.55, which does not make the long haul the bargain it looks like: distance only pays on a full trailer. If you have units waiting, Phoenix to Chicago is the clearest opening, down 11% to $1150–$1300.
