[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 784447, member: 6408"] I have to respectively disagree here. The last two years, I pulled those PKGZs (100%, or rather as CACH, the building, not the poster here, labels them, 97,98 or 99%). Had 4 blowouts, one I had to change when switching, meet man didn't know the whole tire was gone, along with the mud flap bracket and part of the rear light. Lights hanging from the top, not secured. Expired inspection stickers. Air leaks. DOT tape on the sides and back completely invisible or gone. Door came open while still sealed, yes, the bolt on the one-handle door just decided to come loose and jar the handle up and open (luckily, for once, CACH put a load-lock in and I don't think I lost anything). Leg cranks either don't work or you need 3 men and a boy to crank it. UPS made a good decision here. And, yes, it is peak. Locally, UPS has used diff company trailers starting at peak. If we can handle it w/peak people or our own network, then we pull em. If not, somebody else pulls em. Here, nobody wants to work. I hear company's tried to hire many but either flunked or quit.
