    They may do that, however I would not go to that expense personally. No guarantee they show up to orientation and then a company would be out a rental car..

    They sold the company in the 4th generation to the investment firm. But your correct in what you heard.

    The picking over the carcass of the company continues.

    I am struck by the heavy handed Auto Parts flying what they need at Falcon's expense in any amount to replace when a driver did not get there just in time.

    Falcon or any company should never buy fuel on credit. It has to have cash in there so that it's paid, done and move on. Credit is good for when you punch engine blocks and blow them up. But cash is king.

    Former Falcon Transport execs allege mismanagement, contract demands led to company’s abrupt collapse - FreightWaves

    After what they did with that fuel rebate nonsense, I’d say it’s karma coming full circle!
