    No, but they do have some type of relationship to haul their freight; so does Wil-Trans, O&S Trucking and Earl Henderson Trucking.

    I'll apply for jim as well, I just rather avoid reefer. Never done it and don't think i'll like it from what i heard. I wish Knight had apus.. Would go back to them lol.. I mostly drove days when I was with them, not too many night runs. It was cool. I think Jim is dry van right?

    Just applied for JimPalmer. Now the wait begins, so open apps I've got Holland and Jim, let's see how it goes. If not I'll suck it up with Navajo or go back to Knight... Still got a lil bit of wiggle time before i get desperate with bills lol.. So i'm taking it easy and trying to find the best option I can so I can stay there longer...

    As long as I get miles and decent pay, and I can have my truck ice cold in the summer without having to worry about fuel or having an apu.. I'm set :)

    Any company you choose that has reefers; they will teach you how to operate the reefer unit during orientation. It's really very simple.

    Oh I had no doubts about that, but that's not why I wouldn't want to do it. With reefer your schedule is messed up, maybe you're expected to drive after you've been at the customer for your 10 hours and maybe you had no sleep... the appointment times are all over the place, let's not forget about the loudness of them to try and sleep... when I've been to grocery places it has sucked for the most part and I'll be doing that most of the time.. lumpers....... lol the good thing I see is most reefer companies do put Apus on their trucks..
