When they ran out of work they've hooked on to whatever trailer they can rent on credit and pulling any product for fuel and eats. How many miles do you have to run to clear a $3100 Pete payment at $1.50 to $1.75 per mile and deadbeat back. I can't see it but they can.

I mean really where is the bottom. Cant run local, Regional or Over the road to make any money anymore, Truly sad!

Something might be fixing to crank off again.
