Basis of Accounting [Text Block] | NOTE A: BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. During the first quarter of 2015, the Company began to classify payments for fuel and operating taxes and licenses as operating supplies and expenses, and communications and utilities as other expenses, rather than separately as had been presented in reports prior to the period ended March 31, 2015. This reclassification has no effect on operating income, net income or earnings per share. The Company has made corresponding reclassifications to comparative periods shown. |

Investments in Debt and Marketable Equity Securities (and Certain Trading Assets) Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE C: MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES The Company accounts for its marketable securities in accordance with ASC Topic 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities Marketable equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses, declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities, and increases or decreases in value on trading securities, if any, are included in the determination of net income. A quarterly evaluation is performed in order to judge whether declines in value below cost should be considered temporary and when losses are deemed to be other-than-temporary. Several factors are considered in this evaluation process including the severity and duration of the decline in value, the financial condition and near-term outlook for the specific issuer and the Company’s ability to hold the securities. For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the evaluation resulted in an impairment charge of approximately $579,000 in the Company’s non-operating income in its statement of operations. For the quarter ended September 30, 2014, an impairment charge was not necessary. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, the evaluation resulted in an impairment charge of approximately $579,000 in the Company’s non-operating income in its statement of operations. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the evaluation resulted in an impairment charge of approximately $1,000 in the Company’s non-operating income in its statement of operations. The following table sets forth cost, market value and unrealized gains on equity securities classified as available-for-sale and equity securities classified as trading as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Compensation and Employee Benefit Plans [Text Block] | NOTE D: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company maintains a stock option plan under which incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options may be granted. On March 2, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) adopted, and shareholders later approved, the 2006 Stock Option Plan (the “2006 Plan”). Under the 2006 Plan, 750,000 shares were reserved for the issuance of stock options to directors, officers, key employees, and others. The option exercise price under the 2006 Plan is the fair market value of the stock on the date the option is granted. The fair market value is determined by the closing price of the Company’s common stock, on its primary exchange, on the same date that the option is granted. On March 13, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and on May 29, 2014 our shareholders approved, the 2014 Amended and Restated Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) which replaced the 2006 Plan. The shares which remained reserved under the 2006 Plan were carried over to the 2014 Plan and are reserved for the issuance of stock awards to directors, officers, key employees, and others. Stock option exercise price under the 2014 Plan is the fair market value of the stock on the date the option is granted. The restricted stock purchase price under the 2014 Plan shall not be less than 85% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the award is made. The fair market value is determined by the average of the highest and lowest sales prices for a share of the Company’s common stock, on its primary exchange, on the same date that the option or award is granted. Outstanding nonqualified stock options at September 30, 2015, must be exercised within either five or ten years from the date of grant. Outstanding nonqualified stock options granted to members of the Company’s Board of Directors are fully vested while outstanding nonqualified stock options issued to employees vest in increments of 20% each year. During the first nine months of 2015, 1,225 shares of common stock were granted to non-employee directors under the 2014 Plan. This stock award had a grant date fair value of $57.27 per share, based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant, and vested immediately. The total grant date fair value of stock and stock options vested during the first nine months of 2015 was approximately $158,000. Total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense, recognized in Salaries, wages and benefits during the third quarter of 2015 was approximately $49,000. Total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense, recognized in Salaries, wages and benefits during the first nine months of 2015 was approximately $218,000 and includes approximately $70,000 recognized as a result of the grant of 175 shares to each non-employee director during the first quarter of 2015. The recognition of stock-based compensation expense decreased diluted earnings per share reported for the third quarter ending September 30, 2015 by approximately $0.01 but did not have a recognizable impact on basic earnings per share reported for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015. The recognition of stock-based compensation expense decreased diluted and basic earnings per common share by approximately $0.02 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had stock-based compensation plans with total unvested stock-based compensation expense of approximately $394,000 which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period. As a result, the Company expects to recognize approximately $50,000 in additional compensation expense related to unvested option awards during the remainder of 2015 and to recognize approximately $167,000, $109,000, and $68,000 in additional compensation expense related to unvested option awards during the years 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively. The total grant date fair value of stock and stock options vested during the first nine months of 2014 was approximately $148,000. Total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense, recognized in Salaries, wages and benefits during the third quarter of 2014 was approximately $30,000. Total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense, recognized in Salaries, wages and benefits during the first nine months of 2014 was approximately $146,000 and includes approximately $60,000 recognized as a result of the grant of 504 shares to each non-employee director during the first quarter of 2014. The recognition of stock-based compensation expense did not have a recognizable impact on diluted or basic earnings per share reported for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014 but did decrease diluted and basic earnings per common share by approximately $0.02 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | NOTE H: EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding by common stock equivalents attributable to dilutive stock options. The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. The computations of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 (in thousands, except per share data) Net income $ 5,795 $ 5,057 $ 18,203 $ 11,359 Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 7,186 7,993 7,346 7,990 Dilutive effect of common stock equivalents 33 39 39 44 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 7,219 8,032 7,385 8,034 Basic earnings per share $ 0.81 $ 0.63 $ 2.48 $ 1.42 Diluted earnings per share $ 0.80 $ 0.63 $ 2.46 $ 1.41 As of September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, there were no options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock that had an anti-dilutive effect on the computation of diluted earnings per share. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE I: INCOME TAXES The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. and Canadian federal income tax laws as well as the income tax laws of multiple state jurisdictions. The major tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates generally provide for a deficiency assessment statute of limitation period of three years, and as a result, the Company’s tax years 2012 and forward remain open to examination in those jurisdictions. In determining whether a tax asset valuation allowance is necessary, management, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-10-30, weighs all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is necessary. If negative conditions exist which indicate a valuation allowance might be necessary, consideration is then given to what effect the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and the availability of tax strategies might have on future taxable income to determine the amount, if any, of the required valuation allowance. As of September 30, 2015, management determined that the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and available tax strategies would generate sufficient future taxable income to realize its tax assets and therefore a valuation allowance was not necessary. The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. As of September 30, 2015, an adjustment to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for uncertain tax positions has not been required as management believes that the Company’s tax positions taken in income tax returns filed or to be filed are supported by clear and unambiguous income tax laws. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions, if any, in income tax expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company has not recognized or accrued any interest or penalties related to uncertain income tax positions. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | NOTE J: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable equity securities, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, and borrowings. The Company follows the guidance for financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis. This guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date and also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable; or other inputs not directly observable, but derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. At September 30, 2015, the following items are measured at fair value on a recurring basis: Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in thousands) Marketable equity securities $ 24,952 $ 24,952 - - The Company’s investments in marketable securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices. The carrying value of other financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount for the line of credit approximates fair value because the line of credit interest rate is adjusted frequently. For long-term debt other than the lines of credit, the fair values are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying value and estimated fair value of this other long-term debt at September 30, 2015 was as follows: Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value (in thousands) Long-term debt $ 118,230 $ 118,373 The Company has not elected the fair value option for any of its financial instruments. |

Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block] | NOTE M: LITIGATION We are a defendant in a collective-action lawsuit which was filed on August 22, 2013, in the United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas. The plaintiffs, who are current and former drivers and who worked for the Company during the period of August 22, 2010, through the date of the filing, allege claims for unpaid wages under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Arkansas Minimum Wage Law. The complaint alleges that the Company failed to pay newly hired drivers minimum wage during orientation, training, and while traveling during normal business hours and that the Company failed to pay all drivers when working on assignment for more than 24 hours. The plaintiffs seek to enjoin the Company from continuing its current pay practices related to the allegations. They also seek actual damages, liquidated damages equal to accrual damages, court costs, and legal fees. During 2014, the Company reached a preliminary settlement with the plaintiffs in the amount of $3,950,000 and accordingly, reserved this amount, along with estimated settlement costs, in its 2014 consolidated financial statements. During the first quarter of 2015, the Company negotiated a reduction in the settlement amount to approximately $3,450,000. Should the settlement not be approved by the court, further negotiations may take place to reach a different settlement or the case may continue on to trial. Management has determined that any losses under this claim will not be covered by existing insurance policies. |
