Cypress Truck Lines Inc. ????

Looks like one of their O/O trucks to me. The Cypress I was thinking about have green 379 petes nice company trucks but maybe someone different.

 

i saw a bunch of them up and down 85 in nc today. there was 1 pete that was in decent shape, had "drivers wanted 1800******** company dot com" all over the tarps and on the trailer and mudflaps. the rest were run down freightshakers.

 

they have bought several trucks and aluminum trailers this past year, not bad looking either and they do alot of hauling for lowes dc's dont know if someone has bought them out or what. heard a few drivers around here say they are doing ok. must be better than it used to be, but who knows

 

hey guys i got a prehire about 2 weeks ago from cypress and then got a call from terri saying they were not bringing in any trainees or exsperienced drivers until after june 1st because of the economy/low turnover. A friend of mine went through roadmaster and got a job rite out of school with cypress, thats been about a year ago but he quit,always late on pay,and truck had a bad air leak so he pulled over, well they wanted him to drive the truck anyways so he thought maybe i can make it, about 5 miles he almost was in a accident because of the brakes, so he pulled over again and again was told to drive it anyways but he would not. They jumped all over him, basicly he told them to take their pos trucks and shoove them up their as***. but thats just what i was told...i myself am looking at may trucking at the moment.

 

Friend of mine started their orientation today....hope he does well....I'm worried for him now....oh well...one man's misfortune may be the next man's fortune.

 

Cypress is a good company. i drove for them from 98-00, then went back in the military. For the one that said Cypress was Ploof and they went bankrupt, Cypress bought out Ploof. Yes there trucks are older than other companies but keep in good shape. I would recommend to anyone, but it has been 9 years so dont know how they are now

 

Does anyone have current information on Cypress? Can you idle, have tv's, etc?

 

Bump................

 

King, why do you want to know??? I don't think you'd care for them !!!

 

I'd like to know current information about them.
