    Here's a question. November makes two years since you guys had acquired GTI. I remember seeing memos saying that by the end of 2014 that everything would be under Heartland Express, that obviously hasn't happened yet. Will it be continued to run under the GTI banner for the foreseeable future or is there a plan in place? Also, with some of what Heartland didn't do, such as Canada and heavy haul, two of GTI's niche deals, will they continue or will Canadian runs be a thing of the past and the heavy haul division sold off to Haney or another company? Enquiring minds want to know! Lol.

    Plan is to continue running under GTI banner. The Gordon family is also still very involved within both GTI and Heartland.

    Canada will continue into the future, I will have to check regarding the heavy haul - I'm not sure on that one.

    Thats interesting for sure. But Heartland has said they don't put all their eggs in one basket, they do have many different customers, not one being the be all, end all, which is a smart move.

    How long will the Gordon banner stay? I'm sure at some point it will all be Heartland Express, no?

    It is good to have hoat back .. since victor has been banned...

    although i believe this is a different hoat...i think the original hoat couldnt live with his deceipt anymore and jumped in front of a heartland truck...of course the heartland driver missed him....

    anyway...i digress....

    this is an imposter trying to warm up to us and con us into coming to gordanland

    What do you mean by have old man Gordon paid off by July 2015?

    Heartland paid for GTI 100% on the day of the close, November 11, 2013.
