    Anyone have any current information about Colonial Freight (just received an offer), RBX (another offer), Seward Motor Freight and DMT (Ft Worth TX). Just trying to get an idea of how they treat their drivers. i.e. Miles, home time, condition of trucks: Thanks

    If it is Colonial Freight in knoxville TN...stay away. They are a lease or O/O company only and many drivers have went broke working for them. There's a few threads on here about them...bad people.

    Colonial's been around forever it seems. There are good/bad reviews on them. Seward the same. I've heard of RBX not heard anything good or bad.

    dmt is not to bad of a company, i drove for them a couple times, they keep you busy but have ragged out trucks that are usually filthy..... but look good from the outside lol, and they don't have direct deposit so you're kinda screwed on payday if you are not in town to go pick up your check

    Seward not a bad company but a lot of older equipment and I know as I drove for them multiple times.
    Could never get enough miles to satisfy me. Most are nice people there but they have a few that need to retire..... Spoiled and complacent. Hello Karla! Really good company if you can live on 23-28 hundred miles per week.
    They run right around 100 trucks and quite a mixture- peterbilt, international, volvo, a few old kenworths.

    Yeah 38 CPM but you can make up to 10 CPM fuel bonus paid monthly! Realistically expect about 5-6 cpm
