    Hey everyone, I’m looking at some companies wondering if some current drivers would give me their experiences in these companies:

    FCC
    Pride Transport
    Morehouse
    Schuster
    Abilene Motor Express

    I’m trying to get an idea how well these companies are. How’s your pay, your running areas, how’s dispatch treating y’all, all that fun stuff. I have been reading the threads of these companies, just trying to get a better idea how’s life is in these companies for drivers. Weighing my options.

    Hope everyone is safe!

    I've been away.

    I'm very happy at Pride Transport. My loads are excellent, I'm staying incredibly busy, which is exactly how I like it.

    As for pay, I'm very happy.

    I'm running OTR for Pride, so I get around. I've spent a little time in the I-5 corridor, and some time to the east coast and back. Pretty good variety, IMHO, and that's only my first 5 weeks. I'm delivering in the L.A. area in the morning, then headed to Spokane, via Bend, so it's nice variety. I came down on US395 today, just past Yosemite, Mono Lake, through Bishop, really a pretty run.

    It's funny, I was thinking today how there are things a LOT more important than another penny or two per mile. For example, how you're treated. At Pride, I'm treated with respect, and that's not something I've not been able to say about very many of the 9 total trucking outfits I've worked for.

    Pride Transport really does do things The Pride Way, and I couldn't be more happy here.
     
    HoChoSen, gräkken and Speed_Drums Thank this.
