    Some of my friends work for these companies. They don't have great records so it was the only place that would hire them. All run illegal. Gave up trying to talk to them about it.

    I live near Elk Grove Village, IL which is the epicenter of White Volvos. :biggrin_25523:

    I have worked for a couple of them and yes you do push the books a little but no different than most companies that are on paper...

    I made good money running with them versus the Mega I worked for... It had nothing to do with cheating on the books it was just the fact that the company was a lot smaller than the mega and they actually want to keep the truck rolling...

    I used to run from Chicago area to the west coast with a truck that did 82mph and would have no problem turning 750 miles a day

    Watch your mouth. This doesn't make you look like an intelligent person...

    Obviously not every day but to turn another 50 miles isn't like your buddy is cheating his books and driving 24 hours straight
