    It says right on their website what they pay O/O's. $1.30 a loaded mile and $.65 per empty mile.

    Custom Commodities, Gilmer, TX and their sister company, Elliot Truck Lines, (iforgetwhere, Oklahoma).

    Both have very nice looking white Petes and Custom Commodities pulls very shiny plastics-grade Pneumatic trailers.

    (edited to add)
    Jade Tanklines, Wilmington, NC
    Actions Resources, Hanceville, AL still has some Petes and quite a few Freightliner Coronados

    Companies that don't pull vans or reefers. I was shooting the breeze with a guy that had a 2000 W900. He said about 4-1/2 was all he ever got with a van. He was pulling a hazardous tank now, said he got about 5 to 5-1/2 with that. He told me he got as little as 3-1/2 to 4 with the van.

    Tri-Corp I know has some very nice black trucks running up and down I-44 a lot. Both KW's and Pete's. I don't know much about them though. I think they run freight back and forth from Canada to Texas but that could be all wrong.
