    That speed limiter law would've been a disaster all round.

    I hate it in Ontario. It's nothing but a 105km drag race.

    Any current thoughts on GPT and their lease purchase program?

    I don’t plan on it. I’ve heard a few guys say they like it.

    Been seeing a few longer hauls now and then. My last load set a new career trip length record for me... NH to LA area, about 3050 miles not including deadhead.

    It's funny how in the Holland circles, we never see a GP truck at the same shipper, and only very rarely at receivers. I can think of only a few that we share as direct shippers

    Seen Holland at a couple shippers. You've never been to Gaylord, MN when GP was there?

    Yes that's one of only three I can think of - which seems like a small number given the shared history.

    I’ve seen a few other GPT and holland drivers at shippers but haven’t talked to them much....there doesn’t seem to be as much camaraderie in this industry last few years.
