    Most Reefer outfits are the same.National used to be known as running HOT and Heavy.Now? Just like most reefer companies run as close to legal as possible.But to answer your question? YES, Go for it. Great equipment and lots of freight.
     
    truckerguy74 Thanks this.

    If nobody answers you, do the stand up thing and post to us about your experiences there. Might help somebody else make up their mind.

    I worked for a fleet owner back in 03. He was good and my FM was a good guy too. The thing you have to watch for is all the other BS out of Liberal, Stay as far away from the safety girl ( Jill ) she will can you in a second
