    Chrysler makes RGN trailers, jeeps and boosters. The tandem axle jeeps use the same chassis as a CJ7, but instead of a body, seat and steering wheel mounted on the chassis , Chrysler just mounts a 5th wheel on it. Pretty slick

    I just got off the phone with Prime about their heavy haul program. Right now it sounds good. I’m going to run the numbers again, but it seems profitable and lucrative. I’m going to lease a new Nikola One so I can keep maintenance costs low. Prime is also willing to lease me a 2020 Fontaine 5 axle with a Jeep.(new price $274,000)


    Right now it’s looking like a break even point of $11k a month for payments and maintenance, BUT I do get ATBS services at a discount. They also pay for satellite radio subscription to Kevin Rutherford. I need to find truck stops that sell hydrogen, that’s key.

    Sounds like you're taking the two pronged attack here. Not only are you working smarter, but you've also done your homework. Working smarter AND harder is the Prime Way. Congratulations. I'm sure you'll go far.

    Yep. There's always some excuse. I've also been looked at badly because they wanted Regional and I had been 48.
