    These are questions "the company" doesn't like to be asked. Expect a horse head on you pillow in the morning.

    I just don't see Crete raising their trucks from I would imagine is 64-65. I don't know of any large carrier company fleet trucks that run over typically 69-70. This would not be a deal breaker or maker for me, over all of the other issues that can make one carrier a better fit for a given driver over another.

    Tyson and KLLM and a few other similar carriers are now running in the 68-70 MPH range, but Crete???? I'll believe it when I see it

    I'm guessing the fast Kinky drivers are probably fleece purchase guys. Tysons has always run fast.
