    DO NOT DRIVE FOR THEM!!! They no longer have company drivers and strictly use lease purchase instead. They write down every single little thing you do, such as "slid on ice" even though there was no accident. When you near the end of your lease and they suspect that you can purchase the truck, they will terminate you so they can get the truck back and re lease it to somebody else. Plus, they will put this info on TenStreet. Lowlife, bottom of the barrel scum they are. DONT EVEN CONSIDER THESE SCUM BAGS!!!

    I suspected as much about Hirschbach. Another bottom feeding reefer outfit...

    What’s “tenstreet”?

    TenStreet is a relatively new competitor of DAC. Basically the same as DAC

    Also, never trust any L/P program. Usually those amount to little more than a means for the company to pawn off the operating expenses of the truck on some poor sucker while they continue to rake in all the revenue.

    How can truck be taken if payments are current? I smell a class action.

    Just pick a company that doesn’t care about DAC. I’ve never even heard of tenstreet.

    I am in no way saying hirschbach is good company. I work for them but I am a company driver for them so they still hire company.

    Because the L/O doesn't read the contract. There is a clause there about safety I bet, from his rant anyway. Or simply they can terminate the contract at any time. Drivers see "Oh look, shiny truck." and don't read the one sided contract, then get upset and come here and rant when the company that wrote the horrible contract actually triggers a provision of the contract.

    From their website, it's a recruiting tool for drivers. So if one is not silly enough to use a "recruiting service" then there is no worry about what they hold.
