Likes

Both Van & Reefer equipment available.
Solid MN & WI backhaul carrier. Works with many large OB MN/WI customers who keep them very busy, almost always looking to get back to their customers or their driver's home-bases
Sales teams & dispatch teams display excellent communication
Sales & Upper Management on the same page, so when they say "yes", you can trust them!

Dislikes

Overall very little to dislike about this carrier. Their service & communication are excellent, whether it has been contract or spot business.
Sometimes because they are so engrained with their customer's, a brokered backhaul contract can get burned when customer needs change on the fly. Important to be flexible with this carrier on long-term agreements when it comes to weekly volume expectations .
