    Was this just the van division or did it include the open deck also?

    Aren't they tied in with Prime?

    They bought all of the North American DSV operations. Whether that included open deck, I don’t know, I’ve never seen any.

    Wilson Logistics was contracted with Prime to pull their trailers for a predetermined length of time. As far as I know, that contract has expired.

    My dumb ### should've clicked on your link. If I read it correctly, it looks like they picked up the Market Transport part of the company which is just van.

    Wilson does power only for Prime. Prime loads, prime trailers, Wilson authority. They bought their own trailers and are expanding their own freight network in the western 11. Still pulling prime freight in addition to their own trailers and freight

    I am brand new on here and getting ready to start CDL training with either Wilson or Werner. Been reading a lot on Wilson, also was considering Swift. It looks like Wilson is getting more love than Swift. I saw your Lightning avatar, are you in the Tampa area? If so, are you driving for Wilson? Trying to make a decision on who to go with. Thanks for any insight.
