Our Equipment
The entire 160+ fleet consists of Kenworth, Peterbilt, and Volvo trucks equipped with Cummins engines. Staying current with low emission regulations, we have several trucks with 2010 emissions that require DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid). We have the latest asset tracking technology installed for greater efficiency, with the least driver intrusion.
The majority of our 400+ trailers outfitted with wind wings dramatically reduce wind drag resulting in better fuel mileage. A high percentage of trailers are Dry Van, with a few specialized trailers in the fleet to accommodate customers’ needs. Our trailers have air rides with logistic posts for decking and securement are also outfitted with SkyBitz and Samsara Satellite Tracking, which includes location and loaded status.
