    I also have read and heard to stay away from cr england they will force you into a lease also from what I have read and then not give you miles and you starve.I don't think they pay that well either.

    Check out Stevens they have good training and one of the best safety records in the industry they also pay decent to start at .26 a mile Swift isn't bad either. there is also USA Truck and Pam Transport both use Driver Solutions to go through and the school they send you to is C-1 and is good from what I have both heard and read on here and else where. Prime is good to but don't lease with them check out the threads on them here too.I would go with Millis too I tried but they rejected my from being unemployed for the past yr.

    Watch out for company paid training. Take your time before deciding and read the many many threads here on the subject.

    Everyone should already know that getting something for free is going to cost you, sooner or later. I sold some family heirlooms to pay for my schooling so I did not have to be indentured to a company.

    "CR England so far is willing to ship me down there and pay for everything."


    Not true. You end up paying for it all and then some.

    CR England is for you then. If you're interested in them go for it. Personally I like green and/or white so I'm going to FFE. (it's the color of their trucks) if you are committed and resourceful you will make wherever you go work.

    Prime hires out of Washington. The training program is free to you outside of about $150 in administrative fees up front. The tuition is completely forgiven after driving solo-qualified for 1 year.
