    They would be happy to have autonomous people too I'm sure.
    Employees are such a pain in the arse.

    Wonder what an autonomous truck gets for a Pension? (Probably, the same as mine eventually will be?)

    You mock, but for the price, with under 250k miles, it’s a reasonable comfortable short haul commuter for a couple years; if it’s smog legal.
