    Read on a different forum this AM, poster said his friend, who drives for TMC, sent him a text msg. Last nifgt, all TMC drivers were instructed to fill tanks and head for Des Moines terminal.

    Since I can't find any other news about this (and I'm sure there would be something) and I saw a TMC rig going north on I85 this AM, I'm pretty sure this is just that, a rumor.

    But just had to ask.:biggrin_2559:

    does this happen in any other industry that you're aware of?yes this really happened. I hope they rented the golf course next door for parking. gonna be a real mess. I imagine it will look something like a medieval siege. first we'll take the wash bay, then the shop, then the main office building! good god.

    If this really happens, Harold Annett is going to look soooooooo bad. I read (on line) a "speech" he made to the company recently in which he condemned the rumor mongers and swore that that's exactly what they were.....rumors!

    Of course. But what else would they do with them? Leave them all over the US like Arrow or have them brought in to Des Moines, and then taken to an appropriate place.
