    I'm amazed at how many people start threads here. Many I've never heard of. Do you think every single company has been #####ed about here yet?

    Probably. What you have to remember about the internet in general is that people often come here to complain but rarely come here to compliment. My rule of thumb in any situation is that each complaint stands for one opinion whereas for each compliment there are approximately 100 shared opinions that simply aren't posted. So multiply the good comments by 100 and then compare good vs bad.

    Most likely not . Some people get pissed off quit and move on . Some people shame a carrier here.... to each their own.
    Looking at the bad section is overwhelming sometimes but to read the same compliant over and over again by multiple users for the same carrier, tells a story that's hard to ignore.

    Its a two way street,drivers complain about companies and companies about drivers with very little compliments from either side.

    It makes it hard to see which company is truly bad unless you do see multiple threads about one company. Lately on here I see a lot of griping about joe blow trucking only to come to the conclusion there is no validity. Kinda cheapens the purpose of the subforum.

    I agree, I haven't heard of many of the people either. In fact, some are just one-post wonders doing a drive-by complaint.

    With all of the issued USDOT numbers that exists, no way they could all have been mentioned, yet. But give it time.

    Not even close. Way too many people who have never heard of this website. Their are thousands of what I consider junk OTR companies out there.

    I'm not sure if the surface has even been scratched.

    Obviously not all of them. But yes, I feel the same way, people will post about companies with weird names nobody has ever heard of. Can't help but wonder how on earth did this people find those companies...
