    For a company driver, what you will rather choose ? Driving single an old truck 2000-2003 for 50c per mile, plenty of miles or driving team brand new truck 2014 for 35c per mile and plenty of miles?

    I'd team with a female super model fo free. But if the option was team with some smelly random dude or solo, I'd solo regardless of the small pay difference or equipment.

    Almost anything is better than teaming.
    I'd run solo in and old clunker with no AC, heat, power steering, before teaming in the nicest truck ever built.

    Which. You meant which would you rather choose. To answer your grammatically incorrect abomination, solo. Teams are ########.
