    Just wondering if anyone has heard of em. Apparently they are a seperate company inside of usxpress, perhaps a special division... I hear they start 1 year drivers out at 35 cpm and have decent trucks and use usx trailers... Any one know how decent they are? Please tell me they are better than forced teaming at covenant. Thanks

    I talked to a driver in the lobby of a hotel in laredo today that drives for them. He likes the way they are running him. I think they run a sliding scale though.

    According to recruiter, .35/mi start. No sliding. They run 48 states, she made that clear. "We don't run solos like USX, expect to be in CA one week, and FL the next. I35 means nothing to us, but obviously most of our freight is midwest".


    By the way, she said that while they do pull USX trailers and freight from time to time, you are dispatched by FSI, not USX. They have their own customers.

    i drove for them for a year ..... they use paper logs and they will expect you to utilize them ( if you know what i mean ) ...some weeks will be good some will not .... they offer no beanies, they do have a type of insurance they offer but its not worth it ...small plavce they will know you by your name ....depends on how you like to run, they may or may not be the right fit for you ... i will not go into too much details on here out in the open ....but there are good and bad just like everywhere

    According to the recruiter, they are on USX's DriverTech now. No more paper logs and cheating on logs at FSI. Biggest problem is they have all autos.
