    Big R drivers were happy when JB Hunt got big. The jokes weren't about them anymore. If you know what I'm talking about you're probably old ;)

    I resemble that remark. I heard a bunch of Big R jokes and probably told a few. Then when I started driving, the joke was on me because my driving started with JBHT. :mooh:

    It wasn't quite that low when I started. I remember being 23 years old and the ad saying "$0.21/mile and 2100 miles/week". I remember it because it was almost "21" across the board (age, cpm, and miles).

    It was "in my blood". I had family who drove and THEY had plenty of jokes about my employer. Most of the jokes were Big R jokes they changed the name from Big R to JBHT.
