    Can't believe I'm saying this but, yeah, if you don't have any experience USA is a good starter company. I can't say if they would hire with 6 months of experience or not, but can't tell if ya don't apply :)

    Yes they said they would at. .32 cpm. Just wondering if the miles will be good. Are they 48 states?

    They claim to be 48, but get used to the East coast if you live on the East side of I-35. If you live in the middle like me, you'll get mostly East coast with some West Coast thrown in. Yes you can get good miles, just be on time (every time) and don't reject loads. At least show them you have a desire to run, and you'll get the miles.

    Im stuck mostly on the East now. I noticed a lot of companies are doing East of I-35 and not the 48 states.

    There's a lot more loads in the east coast.

    Yes, I noticed. Especially northeast, which I dislike.

    Companies send you where there is money to be made. Unfortunately that means the east coast. USA is a good place for any driver, experienced or not, because it is what you make of it. We have a number of seasoned drivers, some have been here over 20 years, lots of O/Os and Lease ops along with company drivers and students. The best part about USA that many other companies won't allow is you can refuse NYC and the 5 boroughs. They will pay you an xtra $100. If you take one, but not many do.

    Money to be made on the east coast? They never seem to have any freight when I'm over there. It's probably more along the lines of those loads just being easier to get. I've fortunately not seen the north east or east cost in about 3 months now. They just told me a short time ago that I probably wouldn't be sent any farther than I75 anymore but im sure it wont add up to any loss for me.

    Was wondering what was going on. I've not been in the Northeast since I left Boston. Lately I've been running a lot of Texas but still getting good miles so I ain't knocking it at all.
