$1000 weekly guaranteed pay+" offer question (Aug 2021)

Swift also does not have APU's.

BTW, Knight bought out Swift, not the other way around.

 

I've done flatbed and liked it. Which state do you live in?

I think Swift flatbed is regional; not coast to coast.

I seen a swift pulling a drop deck yesterday, mid roof KW 680, was blue, first thought it was Melton but it nice headache rack and boxes on trailer, was surprised to see Swift.

 

Flatbed keeps drivers slim & trim and in top notch physical condition.

Hoppers do too, gotta get in there in ick and dig that stuff out with airlines and pvc pipe. Gotta be able to climb under and into the bottom doors.

 

If you're interested in doing flatbed, do it while you're young, don't do like I did and pull a box around for 20 yrs, then decide one day to get hooked on open deck as an old man...starting out flatbed in your younger days condtitions your body so it's use to it when you get old.
