    I'd stay far away from cypress. I run FL a lot and see their trucks often. Their equipment is junk that is barely roadworthy.

    Melton truck lines is the far best on that list . They hire everywhere in Florida except south of tampa. So if you live near west palm or fort lauderdale or sarasorta then they cant hire u.

    I can only speak to Comcar or CCC. They have both Local and regional. Most of their trucks are beat down and governed at 62 .I was going to go there out of driving school but after seeing their equip and the fact the guy said you likely would only make about $650 a week I passed. All of Meltons equipment I have seen seems to be in pretty good shape. I have seen a lot of cypress since I live in Tampa and have to echo the other comments,
