You would go broke repairing/replacing/fixing...all the cracked..bent..and broken body parts on those trucks even before you laid down the primer coat or installed the first sub woofer.......... :wink:

Well I didn?t hear that Swift bought anyone or anyone bought Swift, but I did talk to one of my old trucker buddies Sunday whom I knew from my days at Swift. This guy always had connections on the inside so he was usually good for a scoop or two. Anyway, he told me Sunday that Swift was fixing to make an announcement in the next 2 to 3 weeks regarding an impending across the board raise. Anyone else hear this?

Every trucking company has there bad equipment and bad drivers
