    They did lower the percentage if you pull their trailer. They have switched from 48' spring ride to 48' and 53' spread axle air ride flats and stepdecks. They still pay 82% of the gross with your own wagon. They still pay 100% of fuel surcharge drop tarp and detention fees. So its your choice pony up and buy a wagon or quityourbitchin.

    If they go to spreads are they going to stop running Canada?

    no they still go to canada some of their trailers have sliding front axles as do their stepdecks. To my knowledge BC and alberta are the only two provinces that don't allow spreads.

    Thanks for the reply. See quite a few System trucks up there. What do they haul on their RGNs with flips and jeeps? I've never seen one loaded. just running empty across I-90 in groups.

    I believe they haul boats on the rgns probably running empty to minn to get boats? As for the heavy hauler jeeps etc thats another division that used to be Jafco years ago. Frank had some cashflow problems and systems owner stepped in and helped out. Seems Frank helped system's owner to get started years ago. I just found this site and couldn't let the comment go about this company by the start of this thread.
