    I noticed a classified in my local paper about landair mentioning something about a dedicated route, home every night, 60k a year. Is this bogus?

    things much better this week had 2800 miles came home for 2 days and off again. seems like fl. to pa is going to be a route he is on more than anything else, thats ok miles are miles as he says. went to Greeneville to get a tire changed and he said ther people treated him like family everyone so nice and friendly he was quite amazed. so maybe things are going to get better. stay safe all

    I worked for Landair about 4 years ago. They are a terrible company! They lied to me to recruit me. Told me I would be I70 dedicated. Not one time did I see I70. I was on I95 from richmond, va to baltimore, md non stop. I was lucky to make $500 a week. The equipment sucked! I got stuck with a flat top freightshaker with the bed right against the seat, meaning no storage space. My dispatcher was a functional ###### at best. Anyone who goes to landair will not make a living. But that's just my experience.

    On lunch today at a truck stop just south of Syracuse, NY, I spoke with a driver out of their local terminal and he told me he loved working there. $18 an hour to start and home every night. If that's your thing, for example if you have young kids and a family you want to watch grow up, he told me it was a good place to go. The drive I spoke with was VERY happy there. Personally I'm not looking for home every night. I'm trying to get as far away from MY family as I can for as long as I can. LOL. But that's just me.
