    I'll be more than happy to let you know about my personal experience so far. I'm very pleased with them, and everyone I've met has been pretty great. Heck, I've had a rental car and hotel for two weeks on their dime to let you know the kind of company they are.
     
    Green Machine Thanks this.

    Which guy were you that was training? I was the guy in the white tshirt that Joe (I think thats his name) was showing how to disconnect the forward section of the double drop. He sent you guys on break before I got a chance to introduce myself and I had to leave pretty quick after so I didn't get a chance to get to the drivers room.

    I'm the big white guy. I take it you got that excavator loaded up just fine. It was good to (sort of) meet you. I'll post up my truck number once they actually get me one, so any of you guys on here can introduce yourselves if you see me, it's always good to have more experienced contacts, IMO.

    I figured you were the white guy, just didn't want to make an assumption. Got loaded without many problems tho... easy load. Was surprised I got this one considering its my first true oversize. Unload tomorrow in Corpus Christi, then down to Laredo for my reload.

    at least you got someone to show you, I had to figure out that trailer by myself. Then the load got canceled anyway. Cool load though you got.

    Id definitely want a 379 if I worked there, but by the time I get the experience required I doubt they'll have any left.

    I actually found a tutorial for a different brand of trailer like this on youTube... process was about the same but it was nice to have some knowledge and idea what he was talking about when he showed me.

    AZS.. surprised they can't find you any oversize considering during orientation they claimed the company does 80% oversize!
     
    AZS Thanks this.

    She swears she can't. But one of the guys I went to orientation with, that's about all he does.
