    But hey, at least they invested in the new tire pressure pad at the Richmond yard. That should work just about as good as some of our drivers.

    I just read an article that …
    Heartland Express acquires CFI assets for $525 million!

    I guess some companies are trying to follow the knight strategy.

    There is so much mixing now that going down the road when a truck passes me with a another company trailer I really just can’t believe what I’m seeing.
    My reaction….
    Did I just see?
    When did this happened!
    What!
    How in the world!
