Item  2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Results of Operations:  Nine Months Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Nine Months
Ended June 30, 1994

     Revenues increased by $28,098,000 (8.5%) as full-service lease,
commercial rental and dedicated carriage service revenues all improved
over the first nine months of 1994.

     Operating expenses increased by $7,997,000 (5.9%) reflecting the
increase in revenues.  Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues
decreased to 40.1% in 1995 from 41.1% in 1994.  Lower maintenance costs
on new equipment and continued expense control efforts accounted for the
lower operating cost ratio.

     Depreciation expense increased by $12,588,000 (13.1%) due to the
increased investment in equipment on operating leases and related
transportation service facilities.  The higher levels of investment in
property and equipment reflect, in addition to the higher level of
business, increased prices for recently acquired capital assets.

     Gain on the sale of property and equipment increased by $3,591,000
(53.2%) principally due to the continued demand in the market for used
transportation equipment.

     Selling and administrative expenses increased by $914,000 (2.9%)
mainly due to higher compensation costs and selling-related expenses
associated with the higher level of revenues.  Selling and administrative
expenses decreased to 8.9% of revenues in 1995 from 9.4% of revenues in
1994.

     Interest expense increased by $5,303,000 (19.3%) due to the increase
in borrowings related to the purchase of additional equipment.

     The effective income tax rates for first nine months of 1995 and
1994 were 38.7% and 40.9%, respectively.

     Net earnings increased by $3,936,000 (14.0%) to $32,015,000 or $.70
per share from $28,079,000 or $.61 per share in fiscal 1994.  The
improvement in net earnings was due mainly to increased revenues, the
lower operating cost ratio and higher gains on the sale of property and
equipment offset in part by higher depreciation and interest expense.

Results of Operations:  Quarter Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Quarter ended
June 30, 1994

     Revenues increased by $6,903,000 (6.0%) as full-service lease,
commercial rental and dedicated contract carriage revenues all improved
over the same quarter last year.

     Operating expenses increased by $2,638,000 (5.7%) reflecting the
increase in revenues.  Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues
were 39.8% and 39.9% in 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Lower maintenance
costs on new equipment and continued expense control efforts maintained
the operating cost ratio.

FORM 10-Q                                                   Page 6 of 8

     Depreciation expense increased by $3,955,000 (11.8%) due to the
increased investment in equipment on operating leases and related
transportation service facilities.  The higher levels of investment in
property and equipment reflect, in addition to the higher level of
business, increased prices for recently acquired capital assets.

     Gain on the sale of property and equipment increased by $1,674,000
(85.1%) principally due to the continued demand in the market for used
transportation equipment.

     Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $165,000 (1.5%). 
As a percent of revenues, selling and administrative expenses decreased
to 8.6% in 1995 from 9.3% in 1994.

     Interest expense increased by $1,695,000 (17.0%) due to the increase
in borrowings related to the purchase of additional equipment.

     The effective income tax rates for the third quarter of 1995 and
1994 were 36.9% and 40.3%, respectively.  The expected effective annual
income tax rate for 1995 was favorably impacted by the resolution, during
the third quarter, of certain state income tax matters.

     Net earnings increased by $783,000 (7.5%) to $11,233,000 or $.25 per
share from $10,450,000 or $.23 per share in fiscal 1994.  The increase in
net earnings was due mainly to the increased revenues, a higher gain on
the disposal of equipment and the lower operating cost ratio offset in
part by higher depreciation and interest expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's property and equipment purchases of $258,040,000
during the first nine months of fiscal 1995 were financed with its cash
flow from operations, the proceeds from equipment sales and borrowings
from available equipment financing sources.

     On May 15, 1995, the Company sold $50,000,000 of 7.25% Collateral
Trust Debentures, Series O, due May 15, 2005.  The net proceeds were used
to reduce outstanding variable rate equipment indebtedness. 
Additionally, on June 7, 1995, the Company arranged for the private
placement of $75,000,000 of 6.89% Series P Collateral Trust Debentures
due March 15, 2004.  Closing will occur on March 15, 1996.  The Company
has a current shelf registration statement under which it can sell an
additional $90,000,000 of Collateral Trust Debentures.  Based on its
access to the public debt market and relationships with its current
lending institutions and others who have expressed an interest in
providing financing, the Company expects to continue to be able to obtain
financing for its capital asset purchases at market rates and under
satisfactory terms and conditions.

     During the quarter, the Company purchased for cash and retired
379,900 shares of its $1 par value common stock.
