    I left home on June 6th, I hauled a load to Mesa AZ, Then a load from Arlington AZ, to Compton CA, Then from Carson CA, to Lebanon TN, They asked me if I wanted to run their dedicated account so I went up to Mishawaka IN, Then Woodburn IN, to Houston TX, Then back up to Woodburn again. Now I'm on my way back to Houston. I'm staying busy.
    No Omnitracks or safety BS that beeps at you. Nothing that stops your truck except the brake pedal. They run Cascadias with 10 speeds and Prostars with Automatic transmissions. When I'm ready to go home they get me there in a day or two. Give me as much time off as I ask for. I'm very satisfied with the way SEC is treating me. A very good company to drive for. Also very nice and friendly people. Just do your job and they never bother you at all.

    They have elogs right? Do they use Qualcomm for sending load info? Do they have PrePass?

    Yes they run E Logs and use Qualcomm. They have a very easy and uncomplicated macro menu.

    Good choice, I think you will be happy working for SEC. They aren't your typical trucking company. Let us all know what you think about this company after you work for them awhile. I like to know how they treat the other drivers that work for them. Good luck to you sir.

    They have Prepass but not EZ Pass. They will reimburse you for any toll road that you use. They will also reimburse you if you have to pay to park at a truckstop. You get paid back when you turn in the receipts. For some reason they wont pay them when you transflow your paperwork to get paid. They don't restrict what roads you can use. As long as it's in route you can use any road that you want to. You can get fuel at any.Pilot/Flying J or Loves you want to, although sometimes they send you the preferred fuel stops on some runs. There is no limit on the amount of.fuel that you can purchase.

    You can use Loves but they prefer that you use Pilot or Flying J when possible.
    They never have complained to me when I use a Loves though.
