    Hello I am looking to put my truck on with a dependable company. I have been driving with a fairly large Flatbed company for the last six and a half years. Or to be more precise I held a position as a company truck driver for five years and Southern Maintenance Administrator for a year and half.
    Last week was my last day in that position and they will bring me back as a driver or O.O today if I wished but I have the chance to buy a 2010 or 2011 Freightliner Cascadia and in doing so will need more dependable miles.
    Don’t Think that because I have been in the office position that I have been out of the loop.
    I trained new drivers to Flatbed operations, recovered abandoned trucks, delivered emergency loads, taught log book classes and more. Not to mention running a 100,000 per month facility

    What I bring to the table
    Me
    1. Over 9 years driving experience with only four companies
    2. Was raised in the trucking industry with father having over 40 year’s exp.
    3. Neat clean professional appearance you will not find me in a customer’s site looking like a bum
    4. Customer service!! The company I worked for would send me to new customers or customers with a problem because they knew I could me depended on and trusted. Honest, respectful, intelligent, and capable
    5. All weather experience all state experience
    6. SAFE, I have no moving violations on my record, No at fault or avoidable accidents in my driving career. I know how to run hard but stay legal, Depending on area and situation I can run up to 3000 miles per week. I have had one speeding ticket in my driving career
    7. I love to run long,
    8. Computer, Printer, Scanner
    I have Pulled
    48 Flatbed spread, 53 Ft Flatbed Spread, 57 FT Flat Spread, 53 Van Tandom, Hopper Bottoms,

    My one Fault
    I have a felony conviction that is over 15 years old. You can get a neutral to positive reference from every employer I have worked for in the last ten years. I Made a Stupid Mistake
    My Truck
    I will be going to pick it up this week
    New 2009, 2010, 2011 Cascadia with APU Complete factory warranty.

    What I require
    No Equipment or trailer Deposits
    Settlements Paid weekly
    Fuel Card
    Base plates, insurance and authority Paid monthly
    To be blunt I am buying a new truck I don’t have a lot of startup finances
    Your trailer
    Escrow
    I have never pulled produce but can, Doubles, Tank, Endorsments


    Please Please Please
    No Bull I need to get this truck and get to work
