    Flat rate???

    Looks like they are doing every thing they can to get rid of the van business. Or is it that the line up of people willing to throw their investment dollars away never quits?

    It's a Team's Life Left Behind : It's a Teams Life

    I teamed with my sweetie for 13 years. This was never a problem. Of course she would never git out of the truck unless I was with her. And of course if she drove away without me...who cares.
