    Yep for Trail King step extend-able that set back axle is just the ticket. And no more -or at least less-rattles and pieces falling off like current Shaker. The Petes and 900's are nice but too hard to maneuver when stretched out in small town squares. Truck now is 235wb. Want to go to 244' for little better ride and still be Canada legal.

    I don't wan't to hate anyone. I'd just like one answer to one question... what was the name of the 'small flatbed service' from the Chicago area that the new owners of JPT own?

    You say that you used to work for them, so this should be an easy question for you to answer. What is the name of the company? If you have an MC#, I'll take that, too.

    The fact that no one will provide the name of the company, including you, seems suspicious. Why is this a state secret?

    I was able to find this, but how accurate it is I don't know. The safestat site is down right now, so can't check it through there. According to manta.com, Blazo Gjorev owns Mak Trucking Inc.

    I hope not! 36.9% vehicle out of service rating and 16.2% driver out of service rating are both well over the national average. For only having 9 trucks, that is ridiculous.

    Compare that to Palmer's 17.2% vehicle and 6.2% driver out of service rating, which are both better than the national average.
     
  8. $610,000.00 < Revenue > 10 Employee's .

    Is this the same outfit you found ?

    Jim Palmer Trucking is still in bankruptcy right? His plan was approved, but he's still in bankruptcy......I've checked the bankruptcy court records and he's still making monthly operating reports to the court. That being said, how can he "sell" without some sort of reporting to the court. I would say this situation is just like the scam that went down with ActionView right before the creditors forced him into bankruptcy.

    Also, Jim Palmer owes more against his assets than thier value (according to cort documents), how does he have anything to "sell". The whole deal smells bad, look for them to shut it down real soon.

    If you USED TO LIVE in Chicago why does your IP still trace to Chicago?


    There are some unanswered questions that point to this poster not being who they are claiming to be.

    I would hate to tell you yes for sure because you don't list a name of the company/address. Manta.com says the revenue is under $500,000 with 1-4 employees. Safestat says they now have 9 units and 9 drivers.
