    I am planning to go to driving school this coming summer. I am checking out this website to see what trucking is like and what companies are good. After reading the good and bad trucking companies, I don't see any good ones. Are any companies good to their drivers and honest with them?

    A good company is very subjective. What works for one driver or group of drivers, may not work for you.
    Research, research, and research some more.

    Not really. Just plan on suffering in varying degrees and methods for the first couple of years. And after that, the companies don't get much better, but you get better at living on the road and dealing with it.

    No I disagree ....trucking is what you make it. If you do what you gotta do you can make decent money. If you want to be a truckstop cowboy then you will be just like the other bitter souls on here. Just remember to early is on time and on time is late. It also helps if you learn to keep you left door shut.
