US Xpress, How is it?

I have about a year of experience driving trucks. I drove for Werner for 6 months, but left because pay was low. I did some spotting and then ran local in southern IL, hauling grain. Some people will only count the time I did at Werner as "experience" and that is a real setback for me, that I wasn't foreseeing. Still, I wouldn't trade the time I had at Brown't for anything. It was seasonal, though. Pay was decent. I was treated with respect. The work was fun.

Now, I am looking for a decent company to run for and saw an ad for a dedicated lane that US Xpress has. What is your opinion of US Xpress? I am familiar with the name and see their trucks on the road, but I haven't heard much about them.

Thanks.

 

US Xpress can't be too bad. They're picky enough to not like my CV. I don't appreciate the bias that exists in the industry against local work. It's like I gotta go be somebody's ###### for 6 more months and then call them back. By then, I'm sure the dedicated lanes I want will be gone. They, and everyone else I've talked to, tell me to go "somewhere else" and do some time. I asked if someone can name a company I might try. All I got was C.R. England. I laughed and asked if there are any others.

Screw this. I'm going to see if I can go to a monastery in Russia.
