We have read Covenant Transport, Inc. 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan statements included under Item 4.01 of its Form 8-K dated July 12, 2005, and we agree with such statements, except that we are not in a position to agree or disagree with (a) Covenant Transport's statement that the change was approved by the audit committee of the board of directors on the same date or (b) paragraphs 5 and 6 of Item 4.01.
Very truly yours,
