There was a fellow that started a trucking company around 1980 with just a tractor or two and a few old trailers,, the dock building had big holes in the roof,, and within no time flat he built up a huge LTL freight trucking company with I guess around 300 day cabs and twice as many trailers with two huge dock buildings with 100's of doors. The name of the company was called double D express,,, he even ran and was elected senator of a district in north central Illinois,, you can see the place off Rt 80 at around the 73 mile marker in Illinois. Top notch kind of man.
Been to I-80 truck stop but never to any shows they have there, and now too damn old to walk all that area. When I was young I was there and even then that freaking parking lot almost killed me!
