    Do you think a former official at FMCSA and NHTSA will affect how those agencies look at QC ?

    Checked the price of a New , Stainless , insulated tank lately ? I haven't , since the 80's . They were over $130,000 then.
    Ya , used are cheaper . You get what you pay for.

    Point is every affiliate is different . The two terminals my affiliate owner owned haven't gotten new tractors since 2006 .

    Yeah , mine bought a new terminal and new trucks in LaPorte TX . Biggest mistake he ever made . Drivers kept leaving due to lack of work . New jobs aren't always all the shipper promises them to be .
     
    pathfinder1361 Thanks this.
