I am currently employed with them, but as a company driver. They are OK. If you run team they will run the snot out of you, company or lease driver. I have a few friends, acquaintances who lease, some do really well, others aren't. I have not been able to figure out why some do better than others.60
We are on elogs, with the exception of a few trucks still on paper, I guess mostly lease drivers.
We are getting about 60 new trucks in, I believe they will be equipped with bunk heaters and some kind of cooling solution, not your traditional apu as they have been running. We got 2 test trucks in with that setup a while ago.
We run all 48, but as a lease driver you will probably run mostly west.
Money specifics you have to call recruiting. They keep changing things so I have lost track on what they pay, and what they provide.
You can lease a brand new truck for big bucks, or a used one for less money. We have a shop in Salem that does repairs for a lot less than your average truck stop. They are building another shop in the St. Louis area, don't know exactly where.
They are not a bad place to work, but of course, this is only my opinion.
