    i noticed that Jim Palmer started advertising on indeed in my area, Roanoke Rapids, NC. I thought they were mostly west coast. Does anyone have any good info about them. And I don't want to watch more than the 30 seconds of Allie Knights videos that I already saw. It's like cats claws on a chalkboard. LOL. Thanks

    Jim Palmer is a 48 state carrier, but does have some options for regional.
    Wil-Trans runs Eastern half of USA and owns Jim Palmer.

    I don't mind running all 48. I do that now. Just surprised to see them looking by me.

    How are the miles? How is the equipment? How are the travel agents? Etc?

    @akfisher can probably answer your questions.
    Nice trucks for sure with Tripac APU.

    From some of the info I got I see their health insurance is rather pricey
