    Thinking of Transam? Expect 15 to 19 hour work days,only paid for 300 or less miles. Followed by the next day of doing an 80 mile load takes 10 plus hours to complete,you only get paid for the miles. Very disrespectful, you will be expected to work for free, having to hide on duty time just to save your 70...if you thought slavery days where over ,join Transam ,see how many hours you work for free.

    No sir! I am not considering TransAm! Nobody shackles Frank Speak! Well, Big Maude does (sometimes), but that's different.

    10 hrs to do 80 miles? Sheesh man. If you had kept your speed under 5 miles an hr, you could have made that run without using any drive time lol. In all seriousness though, TransAm doesn't look the part to me.

    So that amounts to what? $35 for a day’s work? o_O

    Sounds like a ‘76 we bought once. Dang thing had so many issues. Took us about 10 hrs to go 50 miles.
