    I am looking at there dedicated account out of Indianapolis. I have just over a year pulling tanker at a small company with virtually no benefits and high insurance cost but great pay. Now I'm looking for a job to retire from. Is there 401k matched. How is the insurance cost vs its coverage. Can you actually gross $1000/wk. Right now I adv gross $1300 and bring home just under $1000 I can take a little pay decrease if the benefits are there. Any info would be great. Thanks

    Arg don't matter anyway. I don't qualify because our tankers are only 42-46 ft

    Don't matter. They offered me job in 02, and I only has sideloader experience at Coca Cola. That trailer was only 28 or 30ft.
    Give em a call.

    What is the closest terminal to Brooklyn, NY they have, guys? They advertise deducated run in NY craigslist, but doesn't say which terminal is it out of, and they don't answer emails. Recruiter I spoke to- some woman- doesn't have a clue, and she couldn't even tell me which terminal is closest to Brooklyn, NY...

    Pre-trip and noting all damages repetedly each and everytime you get a truck is the key.

    This. Also curious as to what kind of equipment they use. I've heard they switched over to automatic volvos. Anyone able to confirm this? Are drivers still bringing home $1000+ ?

    Talk
    I talked with one if their drivers recently at a dock. Switching to autos but it will be a couple years for a complete changeover. We did not talk about what brand of truck they are getting. He was in a manual Freightliner.

    I made .33/mi back in 2001, that's ridiculous!
