    I think it is a terrible idea as well.
    I would never pull double shorties, much less a train.

    But it doesn't matter if Congress requires states to allow them.
    I doubt many in the industry would go all in with it.

    Thanks Jerry. Say Jerry, I really feel you are overpaying your drivers. .25 cpm is too much. Let them eat cake, you know what I mean? Cut their pay in half, and keep the rest for yourself. If they don't like it, Tough!

    I'll pull 33' doubles. I don't give a ####, I'll dustoff my cab over and pull three.

    Where will I park, what receivers have space for me?

    ####, the last time I tried to fuel with doubles at the J, I had to wave off, no room to get in.

    I guess Swift can afford to pay there drivers a little extra after all with all the extra fuel their saving every year there's got to be some kind of bonus right?

    The line for borrowing your boat is gonna get pretty long, pretty quick then. There's a lotta folks here who aren't enamored of your " a truck or two " operation. ..... As long as I'm here can you put me down for next weekend ? ... I swear to Heaven I'll never blow sunshine .... or anything else in your general direction. Much less up close and personal like that. Honest.

    With those driver facing cameras with audio you don't need to come into the forums to find out what drivers think of your company.
