    I don't know specifics, but I think they are out of Pennsylvania. They pull everything. Van, flat, curtain side, reefer.... I mostly have seen them in Michigan pulling those 75 axle (exaggeration) covered wagons. I don't believe it's all that big of a company. That's all I got.

    UTSI corporate is out of Warren, MI. GATL is still in Murraysville, PA until they are moved to Warren, MI. It will happen, rest assured. UTSI did the same thing with Economy Transport out of Tampa, FL and Mason Dixon Lines out of Tennessee. It's their model - they buy medium-sized trucking companies and slowly move their operations to Warren until everything is gone.
