    Glad to hear I'll have company! I hope they have enough trucks lol Marsha said their turnover rate was so low they didn't have enough in as of yesterday. I can honestly say I've never heard a company say that before.

    Yeah I'm a tad worried about that cause I'm gonna be picky as hell about the condition of the truck. Don't want to buy something that's been abused. Used yes abused no.

    Goodyear G399's. Got those and new front shocks and Centramatics put on steers. Got the body shop work done plus dpf cleaned out and coolant leak fixed and clutch adjusted.

    To be honest I don't know much about the company side. I know they still get choices of loads about as often as we do and there is somewhere around 100 company drivers. Other than that I don't know much. I know I would not be making anywhere near as much as a company driver as I do as a lease guy. Plus I doubt I would be able to take off as long as I do.
