    There is about a half a dozen star outfits. Blue, red, green, landstar, yellow. etc. I figured he was talking about red. Red and blue are the most popular.

    I was refering to the Morton Illinois Star Transport. What makes them unpopular? I'm really nervous about choosing a trucking company. I don't want to get into a bad company and regret it.

    I thought so. Put their name in the forum search engine and see what you find. There has been badness posted about them here before. There are definetely better companies out there.

    unless they have changed allot there equipment used to really stink. i drove for a guy who bought some of there old trucks thought he got a good deal. Was he wrong first load i took with one of them i called back and ask him where i needed to go to get it fixed. 310 hp cat turned down to 1600 rpm with a straight 7 speed talk about a gutles wonder it would die if you saw a sign with the word hill on it. I had 15000 going up Black mountain in NC and was down to 3rd gear man what a joke. we turned it up to 2200 and it ran allot better but still had no real power. It was gear bound.

    I just graduated on Friday and I am scheduled to go with Star Transport myself. I am hoping to find a local job if I can, but will go with Star for some OTR experience if I cant find something local.

    Does anyone have anything good to say about Star Transport out of Morton, Illinois? I did a search of the forums and what little I found was all negative.
