    Hey guys, for those of you who operate in Mexico, what exactly do I need and how are the rates? I have my own truck and trailer and run the south west, Cali to Texas. Thank you

    You will need a reefer that can hold at least a hundred people.

    ...and Canada has trailer restrictions for US carriers while the US puts none on Canadian carriers. We're getting screwed every possible way. Like him or not, Trump pointed all kinds of things like that out about our getting the short end of the stick with deals in other countries.
