    there is a perpetual shortage of trailers here. you will find yourself going to like three different shippers trying to steel one. and sometimes there isn't one. it's really aggravating, man. the health insurance is a total waste of money. $36 a week, one person, and you still got a big ### $1,500 deductible ! kiss my dyck

    $36 a week? I was quoted almost $100 a week, with a 3k deductible. So yeah I wasn't getting their health insurance anyway. But, since I left Knight, as of yesterday actually, I don't have to worry about it. Got fed up of writing the truck up every 2 weeks for the exact same problem, and being told either it got fixed, or there never was a problem. They finally figured out this past weekend that hey, the engine really was fubar, and had to send it to cummins to be be fixed. To top of the list of reasons, most of which I will not get into right now, that I left knight.....Walked into my terminal Monday to go back to work and talked to the terminal manager in person (after speaking to him on the phone while on the way to work) about changing fleets and had him laugh in my face when I repeated his exact words back to him. So yeah, I said screw it and went home. On to better things I am sure.

    Knight has been in a slow decline to the bottom of the pack for some time now. I put in over 3 years with them and still had trouble getting by. They were ok at the time I started but my needs changed and they just weren't doing it for me anymore. I am now with a company that will take care of me and my family.
