    My buddy is the Safety Manager over there at PGT. Very good track record for safety. I have seen quite a few of their trucks. Some are leased, others are not. I haven't heard anything negative about them.

    If you are looking for anything in particular I can get you info.

    A 91 safestat rating and you say they have a very good track record. Ya, a very good track record of running ilegal and getting nailed!

    Tell your buddy to quit sitting at the mill in West Mifflin, making sure that the drivers chain right and start checking them out on the road and look at thier logbooks.

    No. They have a Canton, OH terminal, so I was looking into them. Then I noticed their safety rating. Whoa!
     
    Tralfaz Thanks this.
