    Well they are one of the larger companies so they've got more seats to fill. The only bad things you hear about cox is how strict they are regarding safety and cell phones. Which are not necessarily bad things to be strict about. Cox also has dedicated ethanol work which is 10x easier than hauling gasoline for the same pay.

    I've seen them on i5. They're running a lot of freightliners correct? Williams has a few white cab KW's in the San Jose area that are dedicated Arco. I believe they took over after Arco sold their trucks and let the drivers go
