I have searched on each of the trucking message boards and also googled but other than their location, I can not find anything about this company. They are only 5 miles from my house and I have talked to them briefly but I have been lied to before. I hope no news is good news. Would really like to here some first hand info from a driver before I decide.

I live in the area and I heard their pay package is pretty lousy.
Personally, I wouldn't go back on the road again.
Pay rates are actually declining for OTR guys.
I don't know how much experience you have but if I were
going to run OTR I would go with Heartland XPress.
They're paying .50 cpm if you a few years exp. under your belt.
Most other outfits are paying half of that.
