    You will make a lot more money with CTL. By a lot more, I mean thousands a year.
    Huge difference in annual pay between tankers and refrigerated.

    six figures? Just kidding. I meant, do they take care of their drivers and treat them with respect?

    Hard to say; tanker companies usually hire a better class of criminal...lol

    I've done tanker, reefer, flatbed & there's positive & negative in all of them. My best money was in tankers but there was a lot I liked about flatbed and reefers. Some might sacrifice a little in pay to be in a segment they prefer. Some reefer companies with big meat processing company contracts have lots of wait times and not much detention pay. Tyson Foods is a good reefer outfit; they haul their own product so it's unlikely they let their own trucks sit much.

    Hi China,

    Be careful about saying you did reefer in this parts, you get a lot of respect around here. I don't want to see the reefer lynch mob hunt you down.

    Go CTL. Stevens is a good training company, but you will starve and wait for days in the meat patch.
