Colonial Freight Systems,,CFS

Their driver in that Colorado Cooler seemed to be getting plenty of miles !!

 

my pop pulled their trailers with thier truck(was like 4 or 5 years old, so you know it was paid for) paid the lease on the truck whenever he made enough money and he NEVER turned down ANY load. they have you sit and offer you a good paying load that you can't posibly make, so they offer you a load you can make with plenty of time to spare that about covers the lease and not enough time to get another trip in that week. he gave them their truck back when they told him that he owed them like $500 one week.

 

Is this the same CFS out of Knoxville TN?

 

Yep that's them.
I think their safety rating is in the toliets also

 

I worked for them way back in 91-92 and they were only a O/O company and a really good one too! Never had a problem except for all those silly log book notifications!
I guess even the small good one fall down and become a lease bottom feeder!

 

What ever happened to their driver that held the people at the Limon CO scales hostage with a knife this past summer?

 

Became a driver trainer !!!!

 

Nice!!! Can hardly wait to run across his graduates. I wonder if he trained them on the proper technique of using a knife at the scale house.

 

And what kind of new training skills did he learn while locked up?
Scary thought Huh?

Remember van and reefer haulers load and unload from the "back door"
