    They were never used for home delivery. They were used to go from store to store.

    It's not a bad job if the work is there. Otherwise delivering to one store a day and 300 miles at 47 cpm makes for a Swift sized paycheck.

    They had them in the virginia beach stores and chesapeake stores. Not one did home delivery. They had stores that were a hub for curb side pick up. They would gather and pack. Then the truck would take to the nearest of the customer. I had a guy in my program that was driving one.

    Wow at 40c a mile that's only just over $400 per week kinda tough to pay the bills on that kind of wage.
