    Yep...they bought the old dog track and are building there..I am not sure what they have for contractors anymore. From what I know it is mostly people who want to run between Iowa and Laredo, or regional van drivers.

    I was down in Laredo a couple weeks ago unloading and if I didn't know any better I thought I was at a warren terminal. My dad pulled for them way back in the day when they were somewhat respectable but im pretty sure their drivers now I wouldnt trust to drive a truck across the parking lot

    I was leased to them for 18 months after IT sold to Schneider. I actually thought they were good people and not a bad place to be. Too many empty miles back then would be the reason I left, just bought my own trailer. I don't hear much good about them anymore, but then ATS was once a pretty respectable company too

    They are good people. I have heard the same thing about the empty miles. It is more or less bounce to our closest load. The problem is the run a lot of great plains states and don't do much besides equipment. That can make for some long bounces.

    You mean like this WINNER??? He obviously was new ot the game, leased to Brewton Express, all new equipment (straps looked like it was their first time being used) paper tag in the window and all. This was down in GA a few months back. Figured it may help to actually see what your drivers are talking about lol
