    I'm not familiar with your experience level, if I was you I would stay away from the mega companies such as Maverick, and the others, try Boyd and Sons out of Washington Indiana, nice Equipment and home on the weekends . Good luck in your search.

    when i was with TMC i had noticed that there were alot of maverick drivers that were driving for TMC.it was also the same way when i would talk to maverick drivers on the road. many were old TMC Drivers. i kinda what to stay away from the really big companies. alot stuff went on that i didn't care for. i tried that search link and come up with nothing. i talk to Boyd Bros. a few days ago and they told me i would have to have been driving OTR in the last 6 month to drive for them.

    Not Boyd bros, Boyd And Sons, big difference. Type them into your search engine they have a web site, tells all you need to know. I heard Maverick is buying out TMC, both are bottom feeders, just cut rates everywhere they go, then leave.
