RoadwayR Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Why do I have a feeling that if/when Ford sells out to VW this will all magically end up a MAN operation?

tenfive0 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) They build and sell COE over there. What about the States?

Rob Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 They want longer trailers in this country. Therefore COE's are a viable option to shorten the overall length and retain maneuverability. Kinda like what is old is new again. Of course once pride in being a driver, and operating profitability is reestablished, the industry will have some clout. 1 Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

I don’t know if them Swift drivers even know what work boots are much less how to tie them.

Maxidyne Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Trade the hood and big sleeper for more cargo space and you'd gain around 20% in productivity... But the steering wheel holders seem to prefer the false security of that long hood and life in an upholstered tin can.
