    I take that with a grain of salt because no matter what company I put there would be someone saying the exact same thing.

    I know you didn't want input but i just think you need to realize that if teaming is what you want then you don't want to go to Marten because there not really in that business anymore. Marten is a regoinal company now and poeple like skibum and myself spent alot of years with them and when i left them in may i can honestly say i rarely saw a team truck(not because they were on the move but there wasn't many left) and when i did they were not happy because the miles to support team operations aren't there the same way they didn't support otr solo's.

    Sorry if i didn't say what you wanted to hear but it's the truth, you need to find a company that regularly does cross country runs or if you do find a team partner they will not be pleased that you drug them to Marten to waste their time.

    Was trying to 'enlighten' you.
    Go read all the post about marten from the last 2 .5 years here, and maybe just maybe you will change your mind. And then Maybe Thank those for opening your eyes.
    We don't want to see any other driver get the screwed by the bluebird screw.
