    I've been noticing white cascadias with yellow dollar general logos on both doors and up on top af truck also. Is this new, and do the have a private fleet now?

    It seems like most private companies are getting rid of the outside carriers. Or drawing down on there usage. I see loves has dry vans now too. But the only haul tires from their warehouse to the stores.

    But I thought averrit, werner, swift, and all of them type carriers did dollar generals. What's next, will wild E coyote start his on acme transport. For those defective acme gadgets that never work? Meep Meep road runner passing by in the left lane wild e

    Probably got sick of Werner knocking down all of their store marquees. Lol.

    Disclaimer: I've all the right to rip. I spent 14 months there, OTR.

    I hope not.

    It's bad enough aiming a trailer into a side dock blind side while crossing a dual highway and contesting a active parking lot with people who insist on leaving out of the same exit being used to back there.

    I don't want to pick on them too much, but it's really a challenging place to have to deal with from many angles.

    Those loads are so cappy fleets might decide it's easier to find more cheap freight than replace the driver's quitting over that account. They are horrible by almost every measure.
