    Yes STAY AWAY from them! If its the one on Loomis. They'll lie to you and tell 38cpm, but they don't tell u they don't pay empty miles until after u get your statement. Their equipment is unsafe and the owner's policy is, drive the truck back to the yard as opposed to getting it fixed on the spot-no matter what the problem is. The owner, dispatcher are thieves and liars!

    My paycheck bounced. I turned around and went back to the yard to return their truck, trailer and load. I got my money plus overdraft fees, then a person pulled to the side told me they left 2 drivers stranded in Connecticut because their trucks broke down, and they couldn't drive them. It's crazy that low life scum-bag carriers can get away with this stuff, CSA2010? who protects us drivers from crooks like this?

    My husband went to work for them in October. He kept telling them the truck was ready to blow the motor (hubby has 30+ yrs exp) they kept him out on the eastcoast finally got him into Indy, switched with another driver, went to terminal on October 29, turned in truck and equipment, guess what, still NO check! Whats wrong with this picture????

    Yes the 1 on Loomis is nothing to mess with and we found out the hard way. The recruiter lied to us from the beginning.(he has been fired) but we still havent gotten my husbands 1st paycheck that was due 2 weeks ago.
