Arnold doesn't have ez pass, prepass or any of those. well I take that back, they do have them but only give them to lease trucks. At least 6 mo ago that's how it was. First company I worked for in 7 years that I had to go into every scalehouse with

i live in north alabama and i also am thinking about going with arnold. i have 3 years recent and i am tired of the northeast. and they sure cant be worse than the company i am driving for now,junk trucks,low miles and only .31 a mile and 170.00 a week for family health and dental supposed to be home everyday where i am at now but that is only for about 3 to 5 hours and that is killing me dont ever seem to get any rest at all.

Arnold super regional runs lots of nrtheast. I have 13 yrs exp and they were paying me .32 and I was extreamly lucky to get 2k miles.

SO why is it you want to go there?

i dont want the super regional i just want the southeast regional they have and according to the web site i would start at .35 per mile and the cost of the health insurance is sure cheaper than 170.00 a week for family health like it is where i am working at now.

unless they had a big rate increase in the last 5 months you won't get .35

super regional is the only one ou have a chance of getting 2000 miles consistently with. I ran southwest and it was all 150 to 300 mile trips, days sitting and then figtng to get home. When I started complaining for getting 1800 to 2000 miles I was told I'm above average and I already had the highest mile averageing DM the had.

You say you are home every night now, well they won't count that tword your experience. The only count STRICK OTR experience which mean you are gone at least 3 or 4 nites a week, I forget exactly how they count it but that's how they got me because I did 50/50 otr and local with my company of 7 years

Alabama? Maybe Falcon Transportation if you can do FlatBed. Not that I recomend this company, its who I am with currently, and there Automotive devision sucks. But their flatbed might be better.
