| Any Knight drivers have any info running out of the Olive Branch,MS terminal. I am leaning toward dry van. The only thing that concerns me is the pay. It seems a little low for a 15 year seasoned driver. I need to make a decision this week between Knight and Heartland. I am looking for decent pay and hometime. I would think 1800-2000 miles a week and home weekends would be realistic. Any advice would be appreicated. |

| If Im gonna be gone away from home for five or six days a week I had better be getting more than 2000 miles per week. I could make more being a manager at McDonalds. Come on people after deducting insur,taxes and eating on the road being away from family how can you survive on 2000 miles per week. |

| Tribaldady, I drove for Knight for awhile and left cause I thought the grass was greener bein an O/O, but it wasn't. I'm actually gonna be goin back to drive for them if freight doesn't pick up. I was out of the Carlisle, PA terminal. They're pretty flexible. I was runnin anywhere and everywhere, and when I told them I was giving them my two weeks notice, they tried like hell to get me to stay. They offered me dedicated freight, home every weekend, they even offered to give me a raise of .02/mile. But stupid me thought it would be better bein an O/O. Which at first it was, but with the economy like this, I can't survive. Each terminal is different, but as a whole, I'll recommend Knight to anyone. |

| signing with Knight I've been with Knight out of Tulare Ca. since Sept. I have to say that I could be making better money, Most trips are too short(average about 560 miles). But other than that I like the company. They worked with me on my "hometime" and pay promptly and have no forced dispatch. |

| I've been with knight since Feb '05. Currently I'm dedicated on IKEA for the Portland store and Canadian loads(which I drop Tukwila). Which if you are in the know, that narrows who I am down to just 2 drivers. I'm turning a round trip ever 4-5 days for either 1760 or 2100 miles. Usually I have to take a 34 every 1.5 round trips but I get at least a 10 at home when I don't get the 34 there. My miles stay around 11-12k a month and I'm dropping/hooking 75% of the time. Pay per mile is a little on the low side but the fact they are close to my house and I get home so often make up for it. I've got to great DM's that I can call 24/7 if I have a real problem. |
