    Ats has Western terminals
    Laredo, Missoula, Fontana, hell, even Honolulu.
    A guy I talked to in el paso has been running lp for them for 3 months
    He loves it and stays mostly in Texas cuz he runs out of the Laredo yard
    Hell, run out of their Missoula yard and in a year transfer to Honolulu

    Can't get farther west unless they have a yard in Tokyo

    The yard in Honolulu is or was a wind yard. Oh they do have a sales staff in Malaysia. True. Well in 2012 they did. I'm not with them anymore

    JD4020 I like that.. extra butter please
    They were ok when I started in 2002
    I had a bad opps..
    Contract canceled
    I still talk with some heavy haul guys
    None on the flats or steps.
    They got to the point of wanting to hold your hand the whole time.. the only hand holding I do is with my wife.
    Read some of triplesix posts
    Lease purchase there.. well if you owe
    them money they will take their money before you get your money
    Company might be ok.
    But with him having a family coming no way would I recommend him doing a lease/ fleece with anyone. That and still a rookie. No money in the bank for backup.. I could go on and on, then I would be told I'm to harsh on young Butter Cup.. It's the facts of life. The young ones need to face this. Mommy and Daddy are not your bankers landlord etc. You are an Adult and need to face it head on

    Don't know a thing about their operations. I see their units, but never have really talked with their guys.
     
    Rusty Trawler Thanks this.

    Dam nice trucks but that's not usually an accurate indicator.
