    The best company to drive for is the one under your own authority...

    Exactly. For example, Gordon Trucking has drivers dropping like flies because of the buy-out. They have the freight but not enough drivers to move it.

    It should be first and foremost in their advertising. Usually it's a well kept secret.

    This is from the site, Most of the better small companies probly just dont have anyone nominate them, and these guys win by default.

    How does it work?
    The program follows a very simple process:

    • Fleets are nominated by a driver or owner-operator currently working with them
    • A corporate interview collects information about the various programs nominated fleets run for their drivers and owner-operators
    • A driver survey collects feedback from company drivers and owner-operators
    • Company results, in terms of safety record and driver retention are collected
    • Data is compiled to determine the Top 20 Best Fleets to Drive For®

    To be considered for the survey, the fleet must be nominated by at least one company driver or owner-operator. Office staff, management, and company owners cannot nominate their fleet. Only one nomination is required for a fleet to be considered – there are no additional points for multiple nominations.
    To nominate their fleet, drivers can do any of the following:​
    • Fill out the nomination form on this site
    • Send email to Nominate@BestFleetsToDriveFor.com - include the full name and contact info for both the nominated fleet and the individual submitting the nomination
    • Fill out and submit a nomination form available from participating survey partners and selected locations (e.g. GATS)

    Yeah that is like listing the top 50 hottest women in the world and they skip over the super models and choose Queen Latifah as #1.
