    Can anyone tell me of a Hot Shot company based in Texas to lease onto? I have a 2007 Dodge 2500 and would like to see about getting into the Hot Shot business. Thanks!

    Acme or Ace. They deal mostly with oil field related stuff. I know Acme is acme.com. You can find their locations there. Their home office is in Shreveport, La.

    I am curious as to why the company needs to be based in Texas? Jones has a hotshot division and they have freight all over the country. Bennett is another one that has a hotshot division. Jones is based out of Pennsylvania and Bennett is in McDonough, GA.

    I live in Texas is the main reason. Intrastate would be nice but wouldn't mind interstate as long as its regional and not coast to coast.
