    Right on Merlin. I've heard good and bad about it but I'm not letting anybody's experience make what will happen with me. I've driven since 2012 and its my first time with flatbeds.

    Flatbed for $.33 cpm? No thanks. You do know a good company will start you at $.42 cpm and give you flatbed training,right?

    Yep and many others. Melton will start you at $.42 with one year driving and doesn't have to be flatbed.
     
    Merlin969 Thanks this.

    Gotcha. If western express doesn't work out, I'll really consider them. I think any company has the ability to keep someone happy or turn them away from trucking. Thank you for the info though
     
    Merlin969 Thanks this.
