 PROFILE
Knight Transportation drivers don't drive long hours into the night. The dry van truckload carrier -- with regional operations centers in Arizona, Indiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Texas, and Utah -- only does short- to medium-haul trips. Knight Transportation carries consumer goods, packaged food and beverages, paper products, and other commodities with its fleet of more than 1,400 tractors and 4,600 trailers. The company also offers fleet management and consultation services. The company has plans to equip its fleet with two-way communication and trailer-tracking systems. Four members of the Knight family, who together own 45% of the company, founded Knight Transportation in 1990.
