    Can't blame him for that.

    "You'll have to pay for the tires"?!? I don't think so!!

    I recall a big deal back around 2000 when USA Truck decided they could not pay their drivers. It wasn't pretty.

    I am pretty sure if you do a "Search" you will find some info here. I know people were writing stuff about them, but I cant remember if it was good or bad.

    Jughead41, I have a good friend I grew up with who went with USA truck right out of school. He had nothing good to say about them. They told him to cheat on his logs & never got him home when they promised. After 3 months of working with them he quit & went to work for J.B. Hunt. Since he lives near St.Louis, J.B. gave him some Anheuser-Busch runs around the midwest & he's home every day. From what I can tell from him, this website, & other drivers i talked to while I was out on the road, USA Truck is not a good company to work for. The consensus on these forums & on this website: Roehl, Schneider, & C.F.I. are probably the best companies to start your driving career at. BTW Werner is not very good either, I worked for them & can vouge for that. Good luck to you whatever company you go with.
