    I worked for them a little more than a year and ran the 11 western. I spent most of my time between Az, SoCal, Las Vegas, and El Paso. I would be in my own bed probable on average one every 5 nights.

    Just look at their craigslist ads. They off 3 different options. 7out/7off, 14 out/7 off and 10-14out/2 off. They are an okay company for exactly what you want, getting a year of experience. After you get that year of experience with them go get the job you really want. Running out of Phoenix you'll go to SoCal and El Paso a lot. If you choose to go 7/7 or 14/7 you will slip seat and get a different truck every time you go out. if you do the 10-14/2 you will be assigned a truck.
