    no, too much hassle to run stateside. there's a crapload of equipment moving south from up here too...Ritchie Bros just finished a big sale in Nisku, supposed to be almost a thousand loads headed south of the 49th. rates are in the toilet tho, they are only paying $115-$125/hr and that's for oversize.

    with the price of oil tanking, the economy up here has hit the wall hard. lots of big companies selling out, no sign of improvement anytime soon. we're lucky to have disassociated ourselves from the oil patch stuff, we'll be ok but many others aren't as lucky.

    Everyone is faster than a Prime truck. The only thing that isnt, is another Prime driver with a Prime truck
