    I applied with Jim Palmer, but will be going to training with Wilson Trans in Springfield, MO. I know they're technically the same company but I read that JP does more coast to coast hauls which I was interested in. Does anyone have any insight on this?

    Doesn't seem to be too many JP or Wilson threads around o.o

    Wilson logistics bought them. It is Iranian owned now.
    The real Jim Palmer is now called Palmer express. 12 trucks total.

    Now Jim Palmer is operated under Wilson Logistics. Did you not read my statement?

    I've saw Wilson on the new trailers.
    Also ex Jim Palmer driver told me Iranians own it Now? He still works for the real Jim Palmer, which now is Palmer express.
