    Not out of Sparks.. Company is ok to bad depends on what day it is.. Basic o/o company miles vary depending on what dispatcher you get from day to day.. Very tight freight as far as time. They don't pay very well but you will be home. Hard to make a decent living if you have a payment of much more than a grand.

    Does Greatwide hire any company drivers, or are they 100% O/O? Have been told both.

    do not believe a word you hear from them..As soon as they were done with me they would never talk to me.. They would say you are buying to much fuel an when i bought 300 less in fuel they still would take that for some other deduction.. never ever work for these guys, i made the mistake and now paying for it
