    Because reefer drivers have to park their hood as close to the line as possible...must have been trained by CRE.

    I honestly think he had it backwards...those that can't handle open deck spreads pull door slamming boxes...anyone that can steam up half a mirror can pull a box...ya don't see many spreads at CRE, Swift or Werner...(CRE has a small fleet of spreads pulling PODS)
