Accordingly, these forward-looking statements should be evaluated with
consideration given to the many risks and uncertainties inherent in our
business that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from
those in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause

adverse changes in debt ratings, changes in accounting assumptions, adequacy
of accounting accruals, changes in general economic conditions, availability
of heavy- and medium-duty vehicles, increases in fuel prices, availability of
qualified drivers, the Company's ability to create operating synergies in
connection with its acquisitions of Ruan and General, and changes in
