Oh, and I can tell you -most of the tuckers ARE slowing down, even though it's hard to meet delivery times - which is crucial.

Most places, if you don't meet your delivery slot - they can make you cool your heals from hours to days - and if you're running reefers, you have to keep them going... among other pitfalls
