    Answers from owner operators only please or from company drivers who know o/o with companies first hand.

    I have narrowed choices down to these companies; Celadon, GTI (Gordon), and Transport America. If I've missed a good choice to consider, please let me know and why they're good.

    I'm pre-approved at all of these companies and just need to decide what orientation I want to attend.

    I want long haul dry van or reefer with 3000+ miles weekly. I'm a road warrior and don't mind 26 days a month OTR.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Out of those three GTI is the only one I would consider. Call Landstar, you will make better money and have more freedom, plus it's a better company.

    Thanks, I've heard good about GTI but even though I am a clean driver and log myself pretty good...I have heard they sometimes are very picking about logbooks.

    I have no problem running legal, especially when it's long hauls with terminal drops or d&h...I just worried about nit picking.

    I'll look into landstar, thanks again!
