    Thanks for your reply. What's your opinion of Ryder? Swift has been good to me, except they seem to take pride in maintaining a low pay rate. I am currently making .33 cents per mile and can't quite get to 4K miles per week (16.5 cents per driver).

    Check out Old Dominion, and other LTL carriers.

    BTW how do you get 4000mi. a week legally? Especially in a Swiftymobile!

    Swift is a stepping stone. Teams at OD would net you double or more than Swift.

    Ryder doesn't pay very well compared to some local work. (out and back, home daily)

    Go to www.indeed.com register and get email alerts everyday set by your parameters. I do that now. I am looking to make a change after vacation.

    Just interviewed with Domino's in Kent Wa. Nice boss, sounds challenging but pays better than anything I have seen.

    I already went through the long wait for a back ground check now waiting for a drug and road test to be set up. Applied for transfer driver.
