Another Swiftie here (11 years and counting), and Six is right.
With Swift you have options and they don't force you into anything. Well, that has been my experience anyway.
But if you want to be solo, solo you will be.
No contracts, and the way their school works is after 2 years employment you are fully paid back for the training.
Gary is one of the smaller terminals, and those are the best to work out of. Nice people there.
Swift or Roehl, for a new driver who is more interested in solo driving?

Did Roehl for over a year, reefer. It wasn’t true OTR to me. The majority of my time was spent WI, IL and IN. They don’t have a lot of long haul freight. They’re really good at getting you home, and on time. That’s what they are best for. The it’s a lot of 14 hour days to get 500 miles in. Driver facing cameras. They got me my start and I’m very grateful for that but their are a lot of cons, especially for someone who wants to stay out a while.

Pay rate is only half of the equation. How many miles will you drive? The miles you drive will be partyl determined by the amount of freight the trucking company has available, how long it takes the company to decide which load to give you next, how long it takes customers to load/unload you, how many miles you can drive, what area/weather of the country you drive in, etc.
