    SEC is a good company. I would recommend driving here to anyone that likes to be treated
    with respect. Good late model well maintained equipment and plenty of miles. No problem
    with getting home for time off when you need it.

    several guys in the shop have told me that they have got about 2 years left on these frightliners and than the whole fleet is going to the prostars because of the fuel mileage. they are getting almost 10 miles a gallon. they said they are go phase out the freightliners. all the new trucks are go be prostars. they said there not getting anymore freightliners the prostar is go be the new fleet truck

    Things change one way or the other, but that sure puts a damper on my own enthusiasm. But 10mpg...that seems too good to be true. Time will tell.

    yea them automatics get great fuel mileage. the drivers and shop guys both say they get about 10mpg. these freightliners only get about 7. the guy who picked me up in Macon and brought me to Tennessee for my orientation was driving a prostar. they ain't bad they ride good and smooth and they pull good. . he had a 42000 pound load and went over mont eagle so i got a good evaluation of it.

    I'm with you, I've driven a Prostar and don't like them. I would take a Cascadia any day over a cornbinder.
