Come on folks...They dangle a big hood in front of your nose like a carrot to a rabbit. A lot of folks looove that hood and would do anything to be moving down the road behind the wheel of one. That should send up red flags all over the place. It aint the fancy wheels that matter. It's the pay and benefits.

That's a no sh1tter. I had no trouble walking away from a big large car and a great dane reefer for that reason. Come to think of it, some of the best paying jobs I've had have been behind the wheel of a one stack Mack with a window in the back.

This company is a total joke. A friend of mine just got taken, not to mention a bad mark on his DAC. It's disheartening to know that you can run 5000 miles and not get paid for any of the loads you ran. The Billy Ray Cyrus look-a-likes need to be taken down.

Is your friend going to call the law and ask them to get his money?

What is being claimed is no different than criminal theft.

Write a letter to the paper in the town where this business resides and explain the problems encountered. Be brutal but be honest.

I called these idiots the other day to see what they 'supposedly' offered drivers and was amazed how they run that place. They actually 'rent' you a Pete or Volvo (Petes are $90 a day and Volvo 780's are $100 a day) and basically run you from Cali to Maine and back. They also charge you $35 a day to keep in escrow for taxes, tires, main. etc. The worst part is that they govern the trucks at 66 MPH! That sure would make it difficult to make a $2,790 a month truck payment along with an additional $1,050 escrow payment every month. Just can't imagine running a large car through the desert at that speed....and making jack squat! Amazing.

Word of advice: if your company governs your truck...

1) you are NOT an 'owner/operator,' you are a company driver who makes truck payments on behalf of his masters.

2) find a real company. Immediately, if not sooner.
