    We also only keep our trucks a maximum of 5 years or 500,000 miles. And replace sooner when we see fit

    Im really starting to wonder with the rates dropping so bad ?if controlling a area and route with a smaller truck and making a hub in the middle,while leaving the crap cars sitting ,is going to be the way to survive going foward.im scratching my head on this,in the past you did it with one truck by yourself worked 2 weeks a month and cleared 120 k per year

    Not really trying to stir the pot, but don't you think you should know the difference between a stinger and a high-mount before you come in here and tell us all how to do it?!?
