    Thought I read somewhere that they were trying to move more towards being a team operation. Is that true or does it at least appear to be true?.

    They discourage teams, unless the team is married to each other

    I must have mixed them up with another company or the info was just plain wrong.

    For the time being. But Tennant goes mostly to Midwest and southeast. Rarely to the west coast

    No reefer to deal with, though that wasn't hard, except when you needed a trailer washout and the nearest 1 was 25 miles in the opposite direction

    On the Prime loads you have to fight Prime drivers for empties.

    I have never had a problem finding an empty, but I have heard the Prime drivers do not like Henderson because we are always passing them.
