    That's the one. But my W-2 has the Yankee #### doodle address on it.

    Is SPD pulling blanket loads from somewhere else besides Calexico? This SPD past me going west around Deming on I-10

    Or is W-TFI supplementing van freight to keep y'all moving?

    I think two of the 52 trucks remaining at SPD are dedicated on the blanket loads. As of yesterday the rest of the SPD trucks are supposed to be wearing EWW logos and numbers.

    So sad...how did you get so lucky to pick the right division that never had to deal with any of the payroll or name change b.s.?
     
    Friend, Lonesome, Oxbow and 1 other person Thank this.

    Same reason nearly everyone of our drivers makes 6 figures, some significantly more. Our trucks make significantly more than a regular truck, on all miles. Even with sometimes deadheading 2000+ miles between loads.

    I’ll be interested to see who all works in the office and how many yards we keep open when it all shakes out. I can’t see 50 trucks, mainly on regular runs, supporting 4 yards on opposite sides of the country.
     
    Lonesome and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    My guess would be one, if that. You'll end up with parking agreements with another Daske company.
     
    Lonesome and navypoppop Thank this.

    I’m guessing two with Washington and Toledo. Washington for our headquarters, Toledo because we warehouse a lot of crated glass there. Wichita will probably go to eww so they can continue to service their long term skid steer redistribution contract. That leaves California, don’t see it surviving the dust up.
     
    The Block Robert and Lonesome Thank this.

    Given the amount of TMX that comes into that area, and outbound headed towards N Charleston they may keep it around...unless they're planning on dropping those customers.
