I cannot even imagine what this is going to mean for carhaulers going in and out of the Northeast corridor. When you think of all the costs a carhauler already bears, adding $50 or $100 may make it an unprofitable for any carhauler traveling in this region. This might seem like a harsh conclusion, but the cost structure for any transportation professional is already under a lot of strain with expensive fuel and a weakened economy.
