    For driver's that has been to Swift's OKC Terminal can you give me your opinion or your experience's there? Do they have driver facilities? Like a shower or lounge.

    I had a Pee call and a Tcall there. Never saw the lounge. Dusty dirt lot.

    I got a message that I was being pulled for a random pee test. I didn't study. They still let me take it!:biggrin_2559:

    Been to OKC twice ... once to fuel in the middle of the night in and out. Did a t-ccall there. Got there Friday morning, checked in with the shop to have a couple of things looked at ... shop couldn't look at it till Sunday evening. Told them no thanks.

    Then couldn't get out of the place, was there til Sunday anyway waiting to get a load ... Only really bad week I've had.

    Can't tell you exactly why but I didn't care much for it. It's better than Avenel or whatever that place is in NJ.

    So far, I think Jonestown is my favorite. Columbus is good too.

    It's when one driver brings a load to a terminal, drop yard or .....well really anyplace and it's turned over to another driver who continues the load.

    i think it stands for Terminal-Call. Basicly you're dropping your load at the terminal, to get out from under it. other times you'll pick up a t-call load. just an intermeadiate drop point.

    i agree avenel is a dump... feels like going to camp at at junkyard... enven gary, in is better than that

    OKC i've been there twice, the lounge as well as the restrooms/showers reminds me of sparks, nv... it's like a studio appartment
