Electric Trucking Companies Hiring?
Topic 31922 | Page 2
Electric trucks are cleaner, don't pollute the air with toxic diesel fumes.
Right! Did the Big Government talking heads tell you this non fact, or did you research this on social media?
Answer this one for me then: Pound for Pound, which produces greater nitrogen oxides. A.) A Smart Car or B.) A 2015 Freightliner, Peterbilt, or International?
“Clean?” Here’s a WaPo article about your “clean” lithium mining. But hey, if it’s just people in Chile, who cares right?
Bird-one what do you mean by that comment? You knew what was coming?
Ah yes. Your coal burning electric vehicle
Anyone know of any electric trucking companies hiring in Columbus,OH?
FAB Express is hiring in that area, but they are all diesel, Mack Pinnacles. Some auto's, some manuals. Might still be a few Int'l's in their fleet in that area; not sure.

Aren't they based out of chicago? I swear I see their trucks around home. Is it all day can home daily stuff?
I’m pretty sure my truck is electric. It has batteries.

Yep, they are based out of Lemont, on Joliet Rd. All Day Cab Home Daily / off weekends. Tom's been with them for about 5 years now. They have barns in OH, IN, IL, and WI . We run out of Ohio. Only had to go to IL for orientation. Don drives for them, too.
Let me know if you need more info.

Day Cab:
A tractor which does not have a sleeper berth attached to it. Normally used for local routes where drivers go home every night.

Actually you are incorrect about them being cleaner and don't pollute the atmosphere. Read the article.

They are a 'hella' company. I'm pals with the boss folks. If I can get my CDL at KCCC, they will actually 'hire' me.. and have to pay SOMEBODY to train me... (anybody BUT the Tomster..we did that once, haha!! Tanks but NO THANKS!)
In the 20 years Tom's been driving, these last 5.7 have been 'generous.'
Good folks, man. In the 'hoods' of Chi'town... I'll have a Mack Pinnacle out the gate, if I pass my DOT , haha!
