Anyone else seeing lots of Averitt trucks and trailers at P/U and Del. points? Are they they maybe the Fed's newest competitors?

I've seen a lot of them, on my last several loads.

Haven't seen many at my pickups, but lots on the road. Not the best of drivers. Dont know why that would be. Maybe there hiring standards are low.

when we were at panther several years back we would pu at there yards and they would put averitt expedite labels on saw on here and craigslist they are hiring cargo vans in chatt.tn and detroit area. Friend called tn area and was gonna start out at $.70 a mile and 2000-2500 miles a week for starters and home on weekends. Wasnt sure what fuel surcharge is. Might be worth looking into.
