Because I felt like it...

     In the dark days following the Apocalypse, the pockets of humanity that remained isolated themselves in niches or, more commonly, settled near major roadways, utilizing the still-existing transportation grid for trade and fast travel. A dedicated group of men would move goods and materials from far-flung communities, driving Old World big rigs and other long haulers just as people have always done. It was practically a tradition. Since so many people’s survival depended on these so-called “CB’ers”, many left them to do their business peacefully.

     Of course, times change and people’s attitudes change with them. Some saw the advantage of just taking the goods from the CB’ers rather than trading for them, and soon enough the CB’ers were being harassed, ambushed, and hijacked daily. After numerous losses that nearly destroyed them, the CB’ers did not fold or give in to pressure – instead they reacted radically. They took control of the major roadways, intersections and thoroughfares, set up fortified outposts and checkpoints, and armed themselves heavily, regardless of what the locals think. They run these important highways and junctions with an iron first, charging tolls from whoever that passes and terrorizing the local populations that oppose their operations. They still transport goods, but with increased transportation and security fees backed up with force that betrays their “take it or leave it” approach.

    The CB’ers believe that the highway grid will be the center point for the post-Apocalyptic world, a foundation that a new nation or alliance of city-states will be dependent on. Whatever the outcome, the CB’ers would be in the perfect position to help mold this new future. Typical CB’er convoys portray this outlook; they may consist of a number of “Carrier Wave” big rigs for heavy transport, surrounded by “Rabbit Ears” mobile radio platforms and “Flash Traffic” motorcycles. Occasionally “Broadband” assault tanks have been seen escorting CB’er convoys, and as well as protecting structures and other tasks. Despite their firepower, CB’ers are not a widespread faction and guard their resources strictly – every rig is a valuable commodity.

tl;dr
although I can say that you wouldn't need all of those other vehicles
a single rig would suffice

Well, you can't be too careful, I guess.

yeah i can believe that
if you were to lose a rig then that would be a very sad thing

4 rigs are better than one
