    Beware drivers...,,, Do not take a job here. They do not pay their bills.... Property tax and pay drivers when they can........ They are barly hanging on. Drives can not use fuel cards most of the time becouse they have no money. They have ben sued by the Butler bank and had to sell the yard in Corseca,PA to stay afloat for a wile. Yea they just bought some new trucks but only so they can get more loans from banks. I know i worked there for over 2 years.I feel so sorry for most of their VICTOMS............

    So far, they've been pretty good to me. Paid on time, no issues with the fuel card, fairly easy to get ahold of dispatch. The truck isn't anything to write home about (2005 International day cab) but it runs fine. I've only been here about 3 weeks though and I'm staying in their apartment again tonight. Yay... lol

    Well. I have only heard of 2 drivers paying a truck off.
    Good luck.
    I wouldn't.

    Good luck. But you will see.Believe that.
    Maybe they will let you go retrieve trucks for them on the weekends.lol.
    They were good to me too for a long time.
    I had 13 dispatchers in 2 years. Couldn't count how many drivers i have seen come and go. They all started out happy.lol
    Even had 3 different people as the heads of safty in 2 years. And 4 heads of operations.
    Honestly if you can get a dedicated run Mon threw Fri you will be ok. But good luck with that. Two weeks ago we couldn't even use the fuel cards.lol

    If you have only ben there 3 weeks you have only got one check. They hold 2 weeks pay for a reason.lol
    Good luck.
    I hold no hard feelings twords them.
    But would feel bad if i did not worn you guys.
    I wish i had worked for them when the father ran things. I have heard good things about how he ran things.
    Good luck driver.

    So are you in Butler gettin a load goin to Terihote? You will be doin that by the mile soon. Not making a lot. Seen them do that to a LOT of drivers. You must have the Terihote truck. It is the only 05 daycab they have.lol

    I know the company well.
    And you have maybe 2 months and they will probably do it. The last guys they had in Terihote told me they were runnin Michigan loads out of Terihote then runnin back empty. Only gettin paid one way.
    Good luck.
    If you do one by the mile they got you.lol........

    Probably 5 or 6 months ago there was 3 or 4 drivers there and Jhon was the warehouse guy. All the drivers quit because they took them to mileage pay. Then Jhon quit. He told it was because it cost so much yo live in Terihote and they would not give hima raise

    Just like freaking clock work, they gave me a choice. Go to mileage pay, or don't get paid at all
