    Just curious what terminals have the worst
    parking?. From my experience the 2 in Southern California Fontana and jurupa valley it’s much more difficult to park a rig than any other terminal I’ve been to, parking space shortage I guess. Although the bobtail parking in Memphis isn’t that great either.

    Without seeing them, but having parked at other Mega terminals in the communist state, I'm going to say money.

    Property and property tax is the communist state are outrageous.

    You really think Greer is that bad?, I find it to be a lot better than the socal terminals.

    I haven't gone west of I-35 or north of I-40 in the three years before I retired a few months ago so I have nothing but bad memories of the California terminals.

    Is the Troutdale Oregon terminal still in business?

    Take a look at this unnamed Swift terminal with more broken trailers than most carriers have in their inventory.

    We’ve seen this before. The vast majority of these trailers (the ones starting with 5) are just being taken out of service due to their age and being replaced. I could make a video of rows and rows of brand new trailers at Swift terminals about to be put into service.

    They moved the terminal down the street from the old one. Haven't been there in awhile.. But it was better than the old one
