    If you live in MI, My first choice would be United Road as they have a terminal in Romulus. They have decent pay and will get you home often being that you live in the area. Jack cooper is a great company as well, they are union so the money is good. Just not sure if they are hiring in MI.

    I work for Cassens transport..I was based out of Lordstown, OH but recently trans. to our terminal in Louisville, KY.. While at Lordstown I averaged around 60k a year..I had approximately 45 guys below me in seniority. Being a new hire and on the bottom and lordstown I can tell you that you will make around 45k to 50k..In Louisville i am on track now to make 98k..Out of Louisville our freight goes from there to buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse NY..We then backhaul out of Niagara Falls,NY to either Youngstown,OH area or WV..Then from Youngstown we will load out of Lordstown to Louisville or from WV we will run over to Louisville for another load..You can make #### tons of money in a union car haul job but you must KNOW you will not start out making the big money you have to work your way up in seniority..and you will also not have the nicest equipment..so with that being said good luck..and I noticed someone said something about united road..back out now all of those guys leave there and end up at either cassens or cooper
