    If you sign on for a dedicated account you don't have to team. If they have 1 available in your area you do a few more hours with the trainer and then right to whatever account you signed on for.

    Swift has a Dollar Tree account out of Stockton ... Should get you home most nights and every weekend.

    What kind of physycal activity? i am 54 years old and not able anymore to do the things i did 20 years ago. Well able to drive long journeys and 3000+ miles a week will not be a problem. i do not have to be home so often, once every two three months will do. i hope to find long trips like coast to coast and driving in team is not a problem.

    Well i have decided to go with Watkins and Shepard. Read lots of good things about them, including the fact i won't have to go out with a trainer if i make it through their orientation. If i pass that then i get my own truck. I am now just waiting for them to verify my employment history and hopefully ill be on the bus for orientation on the 3rd.
