    Why does it have to be a O/O. If you are looking for Ga to Ca why not try Southern Freight in Atlanta. Their main haul is from Atlanta to Ca to Fl. back to Atlanta.

    I know longer work there because of medical reasons but when I was there they took very good care of me. The miles where good the pay was good and the equipment is new.

    Just my oppinion :biggrin_25519:

    You are thinking of Southeastern pulling the doubles. Southern frieght ugly old blue trucks with stripes, based out of Atlanta.

    If you are just looking for a large car ride, look at RWH trucking out of Oakwood,Ga. Smallish company, nice trucks, run longhaul west.

    I also have a friend who is an owner/op from Lawrenceville,Ga. I don't think he is what you are looking for though. He would treat you well, and runs the southeast to the west coast leased to a company pulling produce. He would NOT put you in a largecar though. He runs aerodynamic trucks(Pete 387), and has them governed pretty slow.

    The guys who will hire you to drive a 100 mile per hour Pete 379 are getting pretty hard to find anymore. Good Luck.
