After 27 years as a company driver I purchased a truck. Unfortunately I couldn't keep it running due to the piss poor aft-treatment design. I'm currently involved in lawsuit trying to recoup my losses. Things aren't that good at home either so I have moved on now hauling food grade as company driver. I have been working for Johnsrud based in Des Moines, running up and down I-35. A #### good company btw, however their trucks are something to be desired. I'm currently in the application process with Indian River. Their trucks are specked out pretty nice. As with any box of candy, you never know what your gonna get until you open the box. What I do know is they are not in business to loose money, so contrary to what I've been reading, maybe I can stay busy over there. If anyone else is interested in Indian River but not sure if you want to make the move right now, follow me and I will try to keep y'all posted. I wont sugar coat anything, and I wont be negative either. I will tell it as it truly is, as I see it.

Lots of drivers look down their nose at IR, but evidently lots of people work for them judging by the number of trucks on the road. Seems the negativity doesn't quite add up. Keep us posted on your adventure, sir
