    That's another question how many of the weird contract auto parts carriers with some strange name slapped on the side of the truck have come and gone on the span of 10 years? Heck half those companies probably don't even have a real yard or terminal of there own, they probably just rent space from a U-Store it place at times.

    Probably a lot. Some probably have come and gone so quickly you didn't even know they were around at all.

    They usually start out with some raggy old road units to drive in the city or tri state milk runs , they all seem nice & reasonable people to work for at first but then after a few yrs and more runs & getting bigger something happens to their thinking , they start cutting corners on fixing the equipment to where we are begging for tires , they start cutting our hrs and nip picking the driving force ,finally they start hiring at a lower pay scale and run the original drivers out the door no matter how professional you are the bottom line is profit .....so we have to shuck & jive until we find the back door , my goal is to leave them on a good note ....but really it's disgusting how we do business these days

    That's pretty much what I figured old tore up trucks these companies run till they get bigger and bigger cut corners and boom then they just disappear.
