    In reality, both the CRE truck & the Werner truck are probably lease operators.

    CRE treats those drivers as saints. They have a special jacket and strut around the headquarters. Probably for recruiting. I remember seeing them in SLC. I was like so what. They probably dont have a life either.

    Brand new 2019 Corvettes can be had for $51K.

    I think FSR should buy one.

    After poking around in a automatic for two days I can say I'm not really a fan. It's a really nice truck but I'm used to just letting the clutch out in reverse and idling to the dock. This thing takes off in reverse and I'm not in the habit of dragging the brake which you need to in this truck. It also feels like it shutters when you accelerate with a heavy load.
