Personally though I still can not see what someone wants with a brand new truck. I have had the misfortune of driving 2 and had more problems with them than with the ones with 500,000 miles on the odometer. Give me a truck with 100-200,000 miles on it any day.

That was the main reason I went to Knight, because they boasted about 75% drop and hook. That is supposed to be a good thing, but when you spend half a day looking for a trailer after dropping one it kinda defeats the purpose. I then hoped for live unloads....But then I realized that was the reason I left me previous company and went with Knight. I am now back with my previous employer making more $$$ than I could at Knight.

Knight seems to be having some account problems. I run out of the Katy terminal and for the last 3 weeks or so loads are far and few in between. I am going to ride it out to see if it all clears up, I just don't know how long my pocket book can hold out.
