    Trucks are clean, 10 speed. Plan on getting an older truck. You might get lucky and get a newer freightliner or Pete. I got a t660 kw with 544k miles on it. First load picks up in Missoula mt this afternoon going to Fife Wa

    I worked for that company and they are full of ####.. I had to leave Missoula and go to Denver to get my truck. When i got there it was a KW T660. The inside of the truck was clean but i didn't have a prepass or nothing else in my side box and they still wanted me to run. So out of the whole month and day i was with them i keep telling them i need a prepass because im tired of stopping by every scale that is open. They don't pay worth of #### because you can be broke down and want get paid an will have to keep telling them about your broke down pay. I left home on Jan. 9, 2014 planning on staying out until the day before Valentine's. I took a load from Gaylord, Mn. to La Mirada, CA. I reloaded a couple miles from my drop headed to Spokane, WA and had to be there on the 17th instead i was there on the 16th at 10:00 am but couldn't get unloaded until Friday morning. To much time wasting. But on my way to Spokane on I-5North i got pulled in for a Dot inspection.. I didn't get a ticket but it was things that needed to be fixed but i could still drive .. So at the end of my day i faxed the company the report. When i unloaded in Spokane i told them i need to get to terminal so we can get these things fixed an me a prepass its only 3 hours away..My DM going to tell me no we ain't doing that you going to go pick up this load 4 hours the opposite direction an delivery it. I told him i want be picking up that load because you is not about to get my CDL's ###### up .. So i jumped rite on 90 East an took there truck to Missoula and told them i quit.Since i been getting the run around since i started.. Now im happy were im at were they care about there drivers instead JimPalmer care more about there self an loads.. Trucks are pieces of ####

    Horrible company to work for, very disrespectful and abusive to drivers. Stay away from this company at all costs!
