yeah, swift mostly uses their terminals as points of refueling. they've limited the amount of truck stops they refuel at. i don't know which ones are no longer on their fueling list, so it's a total toss-up. if you're going by a terminal, i'd suggest refueling there because you may be SOL down the road. sometimes you may not be able to top off due to the weights on your axles, and/or your gross vehicle weight.
i started with swift back in march of 2007. i recently stopped driving for them because i want to seek other employment opportunities. i was with them for a total of 2 years and 3 weeks.
You're yanking his chain there...right?
Seriously?
You liked Alfy's? :eek2:

Fried Chicken and a salad out of the deli case at Fred Meyer's in Sumner or Puyallup, would taste better...and be cheaper.
Or a cheeseburger from Casey's Caboose, there in downtown Sumner! Mmmmmmm. Good grease!
Hot Dog's from the AM/PM even!! :rofl::rofl:
