    Company trucks are set at 445hp, mine is isx cummins turned to 550, I'd say at least 470 so you won't have engine in strain all time

    I was at the Jacksonville terminal last week and the guy was trying to talk me into driving for them. Does anyone know anything about the terminal in Jacksonville?
