    The length of training is not a real concern for me. But when a company puts you through a quazi training period where you team with someone else (like Covenant and Paschall PTL), not too crazy about that.


    I know that online opinions about these companies aren't the end all be all, the amount of complaints about Transam were kind of high. Higher than Swift that's for certain.

    I applied with all the companies that you mentioned Chinatown, not one has written or called. If I don't hear back from them tomorrow, I am pretty sure I know who I am going with.

    Swift might not be perfect, but it's a starter company. When 3 months comes around, I'll reevaluate and see whose interested in me. I plan on doing the same thing at 6mos and a year. Maybe I move on and maybe I like it and stay. Who knows. But, it looks like swift is a good opportunity for me.

    Did you try Navajo Express? @Locke
    Schneider doesn't have driver facing cameras.
    Tyson Foods?
    USA Truck?
    Milan Express?

    At least TransAm has direct tv, apu, refrigerator, xm radio, etc.

    How long have you been trying to find out about schools man? Since last year? Just pick one and go already. They all screw you anyways.
