    Are they still getting rid of some? I imagine those wont be cheap. Seems odd that they ran them at all

    the amount of wrecks they have I’m actually not surprised at all

    the last truck I would ever look at is one that’s have 300 different clowns in it beating the #### out of them, find an owner op retiring/going out

    Actually penske bought Rollins in 2001 , penske added two red digits to my truck number and I kept peeling them off .
    Story I got was that Bryan Rollins passed away and his kids cashed out , I ran out of branch 421 in omaha and my truck number was 540662 anybody that ever stopped there remembers frank doebelin the service manager....hell of a guy ! And he ate slept and breathed rollins , he died in his sleep shortly after the buyout .
    I also moved on .
     
    Numb Thanks this.
