    I saw a swift truck pulling a van with a tarp on it the other day. Looked like it might have been set up to haul cotton seed or rice hulls.

    I agree. It's already bad enough. Could you imagine what it would be like with Swift pulling hoppers. Lol

    They'd have to put it on team trucks that's for sure!

    What's next Werner bull racks?

    Prime trucks pulling windmill blades?
