Inflation any minute now?: Truckers ready to park rigs over high price of diesel fuel By Jeffrey Leib Denver Post Business Writer Feb. 15, 2000 -On the day that crude oil prices rose above $30 a barrel for the first time in nine years, truckers said they might park their rigs and stop hauling freight because of sky-high diesel fuel prices. Some offered even more dire predictions. "If I don't have any closure within two weeks, I'm out of business," said Todd Aurit, who is owner with his wife, Lori, of a Commerce City trucking company, T&L Transportation. "It is tough, tough, tough, and it gets tougher every day," Aurit said about the 50 percent rise in diesel prices in the past year. "Either shipping rates have to go up or the price of fuel has to go down." If T&L Transportation is forced to close, it means 50 drivers and mechanics lose their jobs, said Aurit, who with his wife has built the company from a single truck operation four years ago into a firm with 40 tractors and 50 trailers.(cont) denverpost.com
