so on and so on

i have heard...now this is only a rumour....that...the old man wants out and the kid doesn't.

of course the way the run the biz....our belief is that they are running it like a tax write off for their fortune...and in worse cases...be a buy out or go b.k.

lately we have been pulling alot of swift trailers....so.....is there a deal in the making?

who knows....stay tuned to as the world spins and spins with C.T.

oh...a side note...sometimes we will see the exact same freight two days later we loaded on a different trailer. our joke is that C.T. actually has NO CUSTOMERS....they just move the SAME FREIGHT AROUND.

My brother works for CT, has a linehaul run, from Mishawaka In, to wherever they send him. Sometimes it's Indy, sometimes Lansing or Detroit, lately it's been Cleveland. He HATES it! Looking for something better as we speak.

I worked for Central in the mid 80's, when they were still Teamsters, and still drove the "red racers". We were consolidating freight, and hauling it into AM General, Mishawaka, and South Bend. Even then, the equipment was old and decrepid. Old trailers, some from the early 70's, had to have a crowbar to close some of the doors. Still owned by Matty Marroon, I believe. He's supposedly the largest landowner in Michigan, he also owns the Ambassador Bridge, in Detroit. When things got slow, he laid off the mechanics and shop people first, and then the equipment really went downhill! Pay was good for the time, though.

That is too funny! I know I hauled the same freight around a few times; mostly dealing with auto part racks. You know, haul MTs one way, backhaul the loaded ones. But there were times that I hauled the same freight between Romulus and Indy; Take an MT, bring the same MT back! LOL! (I slept in my daycab for this?!)
