They live about three miles from me. Don't know about a web site. Very small outfit, but run a small company for a few good paying customers. The guy who helped get them started is a friend of a friend of mine who also runs his owne one and a half truck company and out earns most of us by a long shot.

I think it is a two or three truck operation, if they followed there mentors example they will only have a couple of customers and will more or less dedicated for them.

That would be the smart thing to do,would it not,Jaminjim.I wish I could come up with a dedicated for myself,either in a cargo or straight truck,but we know those are few and far between.Would like to dedicate for a business,probably in the manufacturing industry or parts distribution.

Don't leave out the ones that can afford the big bucks like high end printing companys. but I am still curious as to how someone picked up on the Purple truck gang.

i heard about them from a machanic in Indiana i think it was.. near the Toyota plant...... had to take my truck in there.. it had a problem ...and he told me about them.. suggested i try looking them up to see if they need drivers.

Your first mistake is running for panther, but don't feel bad i made the same mistake. some people love it there but it didn't seem to me to be a good fit for a solo.
