    Here is what I found, they Deliver Red Gold from there plant in Indiana to everywhere east of the Mississippi to the east, if you saw there add on craig's list, it's probably that they need drivers in your area because they have freight from your area going back to there plant or other customer's in Indiana, They start at .35 cents a Practical mile, with the safety and other bonus's you can go up to .45 a mile, Was told that mileage will be avg.2,200 to 2,600 a week some drivers have hit 3,000 a week, they are on elogs Qualcomm, Trucks have apu's and inverter's and they are newer Freightshakers. If you want, you can call Chris Turner in safety, I do not know if I can put there Phone number down or not so i'll just say go to there website and ask for Chris that is who I talked too, You can PM me also and I will give you the phone number and ext. hope this helps......

    I talked with them as well and filled out an app online. Today they called and offered me a job. I think I'm going with them mainly because of the affordable insurance for my wife and I and it seems to be pretty good insurance at that. Seems like it's a good company, but you never really know until you go. You can put a microwave and fridge in the truck if you like and home every weekend.

    I was hired on also, so far it looks like I am going to leave next week Monday and start orientation Tues. thru Thurs. then bring truck back home to get moved into it next week end, this sounds like it might be a good gig to get into especially living up here with there freight lanes.....
