    greetings all!

    I haven't been driving for a couple years, got my CDL working for Prime. I didn't know about OTR or driving team at the time....now I know. I am still fairly young and have a family, and OTR just won't work.
    I have heard about the work up in ND, and from this forum just found out about work in TX. What would anybody recommend? Don't have much exp, about 6 mo. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    That's the norm in most of TX. See lots of scales closed. They will do like you saw and gang up with portables and go to work. Normally when complaints from 4 wheelers get high. Lot of illegals and cowboys driving like NASCAR. Mexicans don't know don't care about maintenance. They put a lot of them O O Service. Do the same NW of DFW on 114. Lot of sand and gravel haulers and now oil trucks.

    @ Lima,
    I have'nt heard of Stallion; I will look into it. Where are you working? Doing what? I am in southwest NM now, but will be moving again most likely. Looking for work in a couple different industries & will likely take best pay, whereever it is. Thanks.
