    Leasing with this company was a complete nightmare and a serious safety hazard. While driving, the truck completely died on me in the middle of a mountain. I was left stranded for 3 full days without any roadside assistance from the company. Because they fail to maintain their equipment, you're put in dangerous situations-and when things go wrong, you're completely on your own. To make matters worse, after I left, payday came and no one would answer the phone. They withheld the money I earned for my completed loads and cut off all communication. They do not care about driver safety, equipment upkeep, or paying what is owed. Stay far away from this company.

    Forced dispatch, poorly maintained trucks and trailers, mostly have issues with air leaks, DEF, electrical and bald tires. Very rude dispatchers, back office in overseas. Illegal logbook, they manipulate the hours forcing drivers to drive beyond legal driving limit which is 11 hours per day. All positive reviews are written by their own employees. They don't pay for detention, layover, truck down and when you resign because you don't want to wait for broke down truck to get fixed which takes several days or drive on illegal logbook, they keep your deposit too.
