    I've not had any issues with them. Everything they promised me they have delivered on. I don't sit much, most times my DM has a load on me before I even deliver the current load.

    I'm currently doing a rolling reset on the way to PA right now, doesn't deliver until Monday 1800. The loads are very predictable in most cases. It's almost like running a dedicated account. Pickup and deliver to and from the same places constantly.

    I'm curious about them myself. Mind keeping this thread updated as your adventure with them progresses? Thanks.

    ETA- Are you going with them as system, regional, or dedicated?

    I Imagine system/regional. from what I have gathered they have a smaller running lane then most. Northeast as far as PA. for the most part. And as far west as houston/Dallas mostly SE regional. Should be a cake run compared to what I'm useto,running, fl.- west coast in as little as 9 days solo. Thank God no more sitting on the edge of my seat everytime I cross a set of scales do to logbook issues.

    No I'm solo. I'm doing a reset before my delivery tonight. It was a 1200 mile run from Louisiana to Pennsylvania and I had some extra time to do a well needed reset.

    Yea grey hounds suck. The hotel is really nice once you get there. Clean, free breakfast buffet, and a room all to your self.

    Where do they put you up at? I'm assuming their main terminal is in Jax right?
