    My Question is which one is best to start off driving with? I've had my CDL A for about 10 years now but never really used it except for the first few months out of drivers school. I have been driving dump trucks, roll offs and other B trucks. But now I want to get out on the road so I saw advertisements from both for Class A already licensed but haven't driven in I think it was over 3 years. I filled out the online info last night and both are emailing and calling today. Who should I talk to first ? They both say they'll give a refresher or something like that.

    Its the little speech that recruiters give rookies to get them to sign on. They promise them a family-like atmosphere, an exciting career, respect and pockets and pockets full of money. They make these kids feel as if the sun will shine where the sun doesn't shine...in your arse.

    So they come here, look up CREngland, see all the bad press, but ignore it because that sunshine injection felt so good that it should have been banned as a narcotic. They get on the GreyDog and suddenly...

    ...find themselves alone...

    ...in a dark place. You people going to England for orientation...want to really know how bad England is? Ask the desk clerk at the motel your supposed to check in to. Ask the driver of the courtesy van. They will describe a slaughterhouse.

    Go with Dart. There's been some recent posts from drivers about Dart and they're happy there.
