    So back before I left the road 3 years ago I'd always see Rohel trucks everywhere, I just started back driving this year and I've seen 1 of their trucks in 5 months...... Just thought it was weird

    You're truck must not be slow enough. I drive a 61 mph truck. I take notice of the other low 60's trucks that would take a day and a half to pass me if I didn't back mine down to alleviate traffic behind us. That and I spend most of my time in the Midwest. I'm pretty sure their HQ is in Wisconsin.

    Our 4 trucks are 75 mph...... I do believe that they are in Wi..... Are you at least getting a bonus for that slow? When I was with V&S me and my wife got 1200$ extra a month for keeping our 65 mph truck at 55 for mpg

    For keeping your truck at 55mpg you should have gotten a lot more than $1200:p
