How will they get a 20 ton reefer load of frozen cow parts from KC to Houston then from Houston to El Paso in the same truck leaving 4 hours later with 20 reefer tons of frozen veggies then from El Paso to KC with 20 reefer tons of onions 4 hours later? It's about 1000 miles each way. What powers the reefer pumps? Battery power might be good for around town Houston but won't get me to Dallas. |
