    Does any one know any good or bad about Gunthers Transport?
    Aren't they a company that got whacked with logbook violations and the owner spent time in jail? Thanks for any info
     
    x1Heavy Thanks this.

    I believe they were the same company. That was many years ago.

    Yeah, Gunther's owner did jail time for encouraging drivers to falsify logs. This was early 2000s I think. Haven't heard a thing about them since.

    They operate some of the worst equipment Ive ever seen mostly old USX trucks their trailers are just as bad. I don't know how the pay is but I know their rates are cheap and they run their drivers to death then hire new ones stay clear

    :biggrin_25510:The company is very BAD. Do not work for them. I have the Department of labor collecting my pay for the past 3 weeks, while the drive hummer-h3's and Cadillac's. Never once did Gunther's Transport let me have any time to sleep. if i took more than an hour they would repeatedly call and wake me. They even left me out in Texas Easter weekend.
    The law states 10 a day driving and 11 if your within your destination. that leaves 13 hours as your time-right? NOT WITH GUNTHER. THIS MAN DID NOT LEARN CRAP FROM PRISON. ONLY DISRESPECT.

    That's not good ...I may get hired by them? I guess I will need to think about declining their offer. I need exp but just not any kind. I need to be with a company that's legit...:biggrin_25510:
