    yep and it's a shame. Central Transport used to be a mighty big dog before Roadway bought them. They were the only LTL company that had intra-state authority in Texas. They recently bought Wilson in order to have a footing in the southeast. I believe it's run by Moyes' daughter.
    Central Freight, on the other hand has always been a POS. It's run by the son of the dude that owns that bridge in Detroit.

    You have to understand that they just operate backwards.

    I pass them all the time running I-30 in Arkansas. Only thing I know about them is they’re slow as Christmas and their equipment looks like they buy used from logging companies. lol

    What he said, Matty Maroun owns Central Transport, also owns the Ambassador bridge. Moyes owns Central Refrigerated.
