    Most of our equipment does use super singles correct, however after you get used to them they handle about the same as duals. I have little to no issue with hydroplaning unless too fast for conditions on lower tread. IF you blow a tire, you ARE screwed till help comes to you. I've blown 2 in 7.5 years.

    After our lease ended on the Oshkosh terminal, we had lost bids on a couple lg customers in general area and were not doing much dedicated in area either, so Barry decided to forgoe the renewal, and moved the 3 op's guys to a office suite in Appleton near Truck stop. The rent and utilities for 1 month at the terminal cover about a YEAR at Appleton office. We are still a lg factor in area and at Appleton Paper just not as many daycab's there


    Not getting rid of us that easy lol
     
    KingTrucker Thanks this.

    Thanks for all of your credible information Mike Jr. It's funny as H*** when some know-it-all jumps on one of these post, talking as if they know everything and a half, and a knowledgeable factor, who actually works for the company comes on here and burst their bubble... I would love to see the look on that guys face after he saw your post. And that propaganda he's claiming to have just magically disappeared all of a sudden as well... LIARS! Anyway, I once again really appreciate your honesty about this company... You and Containerguy. You 2 have made my decision for where I wanna go next in my trucking career, that much easier. #SmithTransportBound!
