    GIVE UP

    I have to put my input in on this one. I would think that the owner did everything wrong in this case. 1st: He or She didn't pay the driver their money in a timely manner and that would voild the contract that was signed. 2nd: How could he even take the truck back to them if he has no...

    True or False?

    Yes , I think it can be done if that husban and wife team start out in their truck 1st and then sign on more trucks. Having a fleet of trucks can also make you or break you too. Now if asked me if they can gross a $1,000,000.00 I would say they can do a that easy.

    Pilot is Towing Trucks

    I was thinking the same thing Greg. The driver that picked up the truck said that there was a Tri-State truckin their tow yard that was their with a window busted out of it.
