Default Prime buys TRL?

I have a bud that used to drive a dedicated run for them between here (in NE PA) and S Carolina. I haven't talked to him in about a year or so, but if I can locate his email address I'll drop him a line and ask. He was pretty content with them, but you know how that goes. They could have cheesed him off over the past year or so and he jumped ship... :lol: If he didn't and the rumor of the buyout is true, my guess is he's packing as i type this :lol:

Yeah,, somethings up...I just saw a Prime truck hook to a TRL and drag it out
of Romark Logistics- Hazleton, Pa----thought he was Hard-up for cash and stealing someone's trailer!

Just asked this same question a hour ago on CB.

Default its all true

yes prime did buy out trl all the trl trks that were leased are to be retruned to owners trls some will stay like the refeers rest not sure .prime will now have new treminal in pittson pa were trl was. means alot more coast to coast freight but will be hauled in refeer units as allowable.i know alot of poeple dont care for prime but i guess i must be lucky no problems to really speak of in almost 13 years here .just do my job and dont worry about the otheirs . stay safe out there and if i have a trl trailer i didnt steal it lol .
