    Anybody know anything about them? Miles, home time, equipment? All the usual ins and out. I live close to Jackson Mississippi so I imagine home time would be good. Doing my research before I commit. Any opiniOns would help. Thanks!

    I found out that us xpress owns them but I'm not holding against them yet. I'm hoping to find out a little more about them good and bad.

    yes they are a part of U S xpress, Xpress global systems, Xpress Dedicated, Total transportation, Arnold & C & C trucking of Duncan, SC are all under the same umbrella. I lease a truck for one year with them back in 2010. Did it like the floating jpay scale but the hubby and I did ok. the only reason wh we left it US xpress became a pain about his dot medical. not sure if anyone knows this but I am going to shared. once you start the dot process it cancels out you current card. The dot clinic we went to was the same U s xpress uses. the dr there just looked at his paper work and refused to see him, which starts the process of voiding out your current dot card. Them safety got a bug up there butt and and would not allow a dot from any other concentra until they had proof that he saw a heart specialist saying they tested him and he was able to drive.

    Total Transportation equipment is good, miles are short for solo's if you have child support being deducted and medical you will be working for free. Total Transportation doen not have team miles. (yet they are always hiring for teams). I just keeping it real.

    Total Transportation was a great company 6 years ago I ran out of Loudon,Tn. terminal and had no problem getting 3000 miles a week, then US bought into them and got majority control and it went to hell in a hand basket and i had ta go!

    Anyone have recent info about them ?

    We talked to a recruiter who said teams make 50 cpm but they haul mostly HazMat.

    She said they do have dedicated routes that get you home weekends but that we would have to prove ourselves & wait till their available. This true ? This sounds like we might be waiting forever.

    Thanks in advance
