    How can anyone survive driving for them? I drove as a company driver for them back in the 90s, and they were a fantastic company. I made great money and never had a negative thing to say about them. But, this seems ridiculously low pay. 20170830_180739.jpg

    They're just following suit. They know lots of other carriers are selling the same thing with fools lining up at the door to do it. So why not do it too? Makes good financial sense if you're not bothered by the consumer's demise.

    FSC would have be $2.00 mile to make it worth while and I doubt that.
