Where are they located? Wouldn't be in the greater Chicago area would it?

 

I thunk they were from Minnesota, eh?

 

You betcha!

 

I thought they moved to kanas city,missouri. I never worked for them. Talked to them once years ago. They seemed shadey then. After seeing some of there trucks on the road then. And finding this post now about them. I am glad I stayed away from them.

 

Was considering doing a lease with them. Tractor is at a hefty price. $100k+ for a 2012 Freightliner. 3.5 year payback. Not too sure about wanting to do that. Anyone know what rate the drivers are getting for flatbed/ Stepdeck? also loadboard, or call and see what they have next. What's next for the company to move isn't always the best for business as the truck owner. Short bounces that pay the company $1200 and your told it pays $500 for a 250 mile run. the typical $2 a mile story.
