    Don Daseke decided he was going to go into trucking. First company he purchased was SPD hence the holding companies name. EW Wylie was second company he purchased. There have been many more along the way. Old article btw.

    I realize it's an old article... that's why I worded it the way I did when I first posted it. 1st time we were the lead company, this time they are the lead company. I guess the only difference is in who is running Daseke. Last time Don Daseke was running his company, now they retired him and the stockholders are running the company.

    I own some Main Street stock.for the last 10 years. It’s a pretty good investment pays a good consistent monthly dividend

    Got delivered and made it back to the Love's. Still feeling like crap, so I had to go thru the torture of setting up an account on our Tele-doc provider. At first it was $82, for a phone call!!!! Then once the stars aligned, it was free. Doctor says it sounds like a respiratory infection, not a cold and called in a script for antibiotics. I know I have never had a cold hang on over a couple days, let alone over a couple weeks...and it is draining my energy. I only had 5 chains on that military truck (4 corners and 1 extra for spits and giggles) and I had to stop and take a breather between taking them loose and putting them away. I knew it was something other than a cold when my wife gets over it before I do.
