{"text":"Over the years, I have noticed that a lot of the trucks serving the ports on the east coast are ruddy old trucks that look like junk. Is there a legitimate reason for this? Or does that business pay so poorly that very few can afford a decent truck?  ","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[]","canComment":true}
