    They run a mix of tractors and I have yet to see one that looked newish leading me to believe they buy whatever looks good in the Truck Trader used classifieds. :)

    They used to have a mix of newer Freightliners, Internationals, and Pete's...I'd say the oldest was no older than 3 or 4 years.....Now it's all Pete's...They run them till they get in the mid 400ish for miles and then trade them in for brand new trucks.

    I take it to mean they don't run their drivers hard. Great for someone who isn't interested in maximizing income.

    We have a few drivers like that. Basically, they are happy enough with a truck to sleep in and one or two loads a week to cover food and other expenses.
     
    BlueThunderr and Speed_Drums Thank this.

    No clue, I work for Indian River.

    I will say that the Central Florida Four seem to watch what each other is doing so I wouldn't be surprised if Bynum and Oakley etc start also.
