I later adapted to this culture because I like how…

The question still stands on whether people should be allowed to import domestic cars into the U.S. While some may think it is as easy as just buying a car online and shipping it to the U.S. there are many other factors you have to think of before importing a car.

In years past though, there was only one true way to handle your trucks. The transportation management system (TMS) was the only real tool that you had.

Now, there were no street lights at all, and barely anything to call an alleyway. Buildings were burnt, whole sides taken out, and the buildings gutted, leaving nothing but rusted metal and scrap pieces of paper. Boots pattered along the abandoned sidewalk with stern purpose. From their shoes to their heads they were covered with clothing, keeping the harsh winds…
