New Hire Drivers
Get to know our incoming drivers. If you see them around, make sure to say hi and introduce yourself!
Jeffrey Cook
Domicile: St. Clair, MI
Jeffrey grew up in Detroit, Michigan, and got into truck driving because he wanted to see the country. He has been driving for 5 years and when not on the road, he enjoys spending time with family and being papa to his grand-girls. One of his favorite memories to think back on is going to the lake with family. His ideal road snack is mixed nuts and fruit. Jeffrey is also a born-again believer!
Dream vacation: Europe
Shawn Hunter
Domicile: Flint MI
Shawn comes to us with over 20 years of driving experience, and he got into trucking because of his family. He grew up in Flint, Michigan, and while not on the road he enjoys tinkering with trucks, cars, and his motorcycle. His favorite memory from the road is visiting the Iowa 80 truckstop. Shawn’s favorite road snack is bananas, and he would also like to share that he’s “lefthanded in the right state of mind.”
Dream vacation: Hawaii
Tommy Messino
Domicile: Galesburg, IL
Tommy has been driving for over 9 years. He grew up in LaSalle, Illinois, and got into trucking because he wanted steady, economy-proof work.
