    Never too late. To this day I have 10% of mine go in. I’m past the saving for a rainy day, it’s for tax reasons now.

    Abilene doesn't have APUs. Remains to be seen what will go bye bye though. My money is on them limiting our empty miles. 600+ mile deadheads to get a load or return to base will stick out like turd in a punch bowl when the comptrollers and efficiency experts start to take control.

    Knight policy is what worries me the most and would be a very significant change.

    Hahaha. $100M annual revenue probably translates into $100k profit.

    Based on the numbers in the article, do the math. It’s really not that difficult. You’re a little off.
