Barr-Nunn

I drive for Barr-Nunn and I have no complaints. I make great money get good miles (2600 to 3100) a week as a solo. Great home time. Day 1 401k what more can you ask for

 

Hmmmmmmmmmm

 

What doesn't make sense now, huh?

 

Didn't Barr Nunn get sold recently to a mega carrier? Knight? Or C.R. England?

 

According to this, Knight Transportation: http://www.barr-nunn.com/sites/main/documents/PressRelease.pdf (it is a PDF file)

Tried reading the story on Des Moines Register web site, but the article kept converting to a "survey" and blanking out. Apparently, they want .99 cents a month for the first 3 months subscription on their site. But I was able to quickly scan through it (after clicking on the story 3 or 4 times), and I DID get to read that "Barr Nunn" and Knight do not plan to change anything about the company. LOL! A lot of us heard THAT before. My personal experience is when Western Express bought out Smithway Motor Express (SMX), and we were told the same thing...90 days later...it was 100% Western Express, and SMX had completely disappeared---as did I.

 

And 9 months later nothing is different at Barr-Nunn since the purchase by Knight. Not sure what the original One Post wonder was griping about. $55-60k regional to $73k on the higher end for OTR drivers that have been here a while. I know some of the freight is getting slow heading south. A couple of guys were not happy when they didn't make it home on a certain day like they were use to. Some people think this is Burger King. Even Burger King is getting away from the "Have it your way" philosophy.

 

Speaking of Barr Nunn,here's what I seen on craig's list todayhttp://siouxcity.craigslist.org/trp/5169277525.html
