I agree that some of this is a result of new emissions forcing some carriers into new equipment as well as a dwindling supply of good pre-DPF trucks.

I didn't think you guys ran anything old but some time in recent months I saw an older Volvo with a red frame, which I believe would be an ex-AF or ex-Watkins.
