New-vehicle routes connect production sites, marine ports, and rail hubs with dealerships, while used-vehicle work also serves rental and auction locations and dealer transfers.
Company Drivers provides asset-based automobile transport and contract services using company-owned equipment, while Subhaulers uses an asset-light model that outsources loads to third-party carriers. Its documented integration priorities include aligning systems, standardizing safety practices, and developing regional operating capabilities.
The network is concentrated in the United States. Pricing is generally based on vehicle size, weight, and mileage. Operations depend on compliance with rules governing equipment, driver certification, training, recordkeeping, worker classification, workplace safety, and inspections.
