    you cant get any miles with Davis transfer. they are loosing there customers. they say they drop and hook but you do more live load and live unloads. they tell you one thing and do something else. there trucks are newer but cheap. they have electric apu on them and the batteries only last 6 to 7 hrs. the trucks only idle for two minutes and then they shut off. even if you are sitting at a red light or backing into a dock. there newest trucks doesnt even have cb antennas on them or a place for them. the new trucks has the vorad system on them. this company is going under and will lie to you in a heart beat and not think twice about it. you cant never figure your paycheck for the week. you also work for a temp company the hole time called tlc. i wouldnt recommend this company to anyone. i have worked for them for 10 months and just left them.

    Vorad is a collision avoidance system that uses radar or something of the sorts . Some systems will disengage your cruise or even apply the brakes.
    Some just give audible and visual alerts, depending on whats beside you and in-front and how they set it up .
     
    stabob Thanks this.

    I wonder if he is thinking of a "Third Party" payroll agency? I know when I drove for Florilli (huge mistake), my checks came in a whole other company name....and my DAC shows that I drove for the third party payroll company not Florilli.

    Sorry, can't think of who Florilli uses, and don't feel like digging through my W-2's and/or DAC.

    the temp company is called tlc. they are the ones you get your check from. you dont actually work for the company. the temp company is the one that reports to dac. its like you never worked for them. several companies is using temps now. this is how they get away with not having to pay for your insurance and workmans comp.
