    Location really limits your choices. Maybe System Transport or Combined Transport??

    Have you applied with Maverick out of Little Rock? I had similar experience and was accepted but had to turn them down because of an illness in my family.

    If I lived in MT I'd just move a little bit sideways to Williston for a job.

    You'll be scratching it out for chicken feed if you go OTR.
