Does anyone know anthing about Swifts Flat Beds????

Swift's flatbedding is actually a pretty good way to get started skateboarding. One thing for sure, when youre done, you WILL know how to secure a load.

Now for the bad part. When I drove for Swift, they gave me one of those 2 stack Freightshakers century condo with a 10 speed. The truck was governed at 65, but would pull like there was no tommorrow. Hit a hill and it might drop to 63 mph. However, the beancounters got in and they cut the truck down to 62 and cut the power. Economy dropped 2.5 mpg and the drive was almost unbearable. Talk about ruining a rig.

 

I started a simular thread looking for SWIFT flatbed drivers. Why SWIFT? I'm a new driver and needed the experience. Not my first choice but........
So I'm here and I want to pull flatbeds. I am aware of the extra work envolved but I do not want to be stuck hauling vans. After my year with SWIFT I likely will return to the SHREVEPORT, La. as that is where I call home.
Would appreciate any and all in-put.
