    I know they do fuel hauling, but what about their dry van division? I see some dry vans parked @ their stores & was wandering what kind of freight do they haul.

    That's tires and other things for the tire shop. Drivers have to unload once they reach there stops. Its solid labor, and its summer now.

    Gemini has three divisions
    Refined aka fuel
    Crude aka LPG and crude oil hauling
    Tire care distribution aka tire and shop supply driver.

    I saw one of their dry vans for the first time last week, and I thought it looked pretty slick at first. But then I noticed there was no liftgate, just a ramp, and it was being pulled by a sleeper instead of a day cab. Why would anyone want to hand unload their trailer and also not sleep at home every night?

    I see your point, however, they def get a parking spot, no matter what. And I'm sure free showers, discount on food, free internet, etc...so that's no too bad.
