    I don't know anything about this company but Freerksen trucking in Dodge Center MN has 7on 7off or home weekends. They're a flatbed outfit.

    Looking at going with Pat Fruth myself. Sounds like a heck of a deal on the owner/lease owner side.80% of gross. Spoke with him today, sounded like a decent man to me on the phone.

    Good luck, hope you like it there. One of the cheapest people in central mn. Driver pay was .25/ mile and .05 per diem. Speedo miles ran 4 trips to west coast, decent equipment, the only place where the shop door needed a code to enter, couldn't get anything for truck, even a zip tie without OK from shop leader. Owner and dispatcher went in new truçk on trip to CA, nonstop, and then expect it to be done the same way every time. Claimed they could run LA and back every week and not be over hours driving single. They put about a dozen posts on Craigslist, looking for drivers, owner operators, all saying west of the metro. If you are from Sioux Falls, look at A & A from Brandon SD.

    Looked up Speedo Miles (not sure if that's a handle on here or not) Couldn't find anything.

    Action in Brandon, SD. doesn't come close to the 80% power only 88% with trailer. I'd do Liquid tanker out of Sioux City for .60cpm 1st.
