Car hauler goes back to VAN.
 
I have a truck that I would like to lease on to a company that mainly runs from TN to the NE. I like to run this area being I am a New yorker. I'm looking @ colonial frieght, national carriers, Ozark, JNJ Express, Smith transport. I choose these companies becuase I see them alot in the NE area. Anybody have any other suggestions?
Information on those companies would be a plus.. Thanks in advance and keep the left door shut.

Truck is a 2001 Centruy class in very good shape. New virgin rubbers , 13 speed tranny with a sexy red cummins.

There is nothing sexy about a freightshaker with a cummins.

lol, I know, I was talking about the color. I have never had any problems with my truck, it's held up pretty darn good since I purchased it some years ago. I dont run it hard and I get a PM every 12-15K which was usaully every 6weeks.

Ronjon, if ur talking about me. I was working there but frieght is so slow, the money is not the same. it not fun running over OTR in a daycab and then sitting in a hotel room for days only to find a lil 300mi run and then back to the hotel. I was running out of the spring hill and when the plant shut down that was my sign to hit the road.
Good Job though, I left on good terms so when the industry picks back up I may jump back in head first. Untill then I have plans to run this truck, thats been sitting in my yard for a few.

How about you what are you up to these days.

Sorry to hijack, but that's good to hear. I've been trying to get on with these guys for a year plus. They pay good/good company?
