    Tells me a lot of people are losing their ###. Also tells me rates should go back up soon after!

    I belong to a Russian speaking trucking Facebook group and couple of days ago one guy was like:" Guys, I have 9 trucks with Lone Mountain. I already stopped paying. Lets all stop, so they can't take trucks from us"
