    Swift bought MS Carriers a long time ago but still uses the unchanged trailers for training, what you saw was not a school but rather a student doing road training in Greer from the Swift terminal there.

    We still haul freight in those old tired dogs too.

    I tend to think we "drag" freight in the MS Carrier Trailers. :biggrin_25522:

    I must say that I do enjoy pulling the new Wal-Mart reefers. Except that they overlubed the tandems or something to them and you had to beat on them and use a prod for the first few runs.
