    Thanks buddy! :biggrin_255: I promise I'll give them 110%. Dosen't make sense to give anything less.

    Gratz Wedge! I'm glad you found a home.Swift is a huge company and from what I hear from drivers I run into they are mostly happy.I will ask Swiftys how they like it there and they seem to be honest..I will won't be on as mush as I would like to be.Hopefully that will change in the next few weeks..

    I think Swift gets a lot of flack because they are the largest carrier now. My dad told me when he was driving JB Hunt got most of the flack because they were the largest at the time.

    Congrats Wedge, thought for sure you were going to May lol.

    Thanks buddy. :biggrin_25514:

    Stay safe out there, ya hear me? I know your smack in the middle of your EVO1 training so concentrate on hammering out those skill sets. Even if you can't post, you can read my updates on your phone.

    I'll make sure I give Swift my best effort. :biggrin_25525:

    Thanks Katey. :biggrin_25514:

    Swift was always in the back of my mind. I think it will work out fine. With the variety of fleets available, I should be satisfied for a while. I just want to get through the training and into my own truck. Swift has been good to me so far. I hope it stays that way.
