    My husband works for Alan Ritchey out of Hinton, OK, has been there for about 2 months. He is making good money, but isn't fond of the equipment. My understanding is that it is older and there are some maintenance issues, I guess there is no onsite shop and if there is anything that needs to be done to the trucks, they either go to Enid, or have to wait for a mechanic to come to them from Enid. They do train on crude, however, and they also have housing if needed. He had tank experience, but not crude.

    Yes I would like to know the answer to those questions myself. My boyfriend and I are sick of the winters up here in north dakota and have just applied to Sunoco in Elk City and Drumright. If you live or have lived in Elk City whats it like there and did u like it. And if you happen to work out of the Sunoco yard there how do you like it?

    Did u have any problem finding housing? And is it expensive? Thats the other thing im sick of... Hard to find any housing around here that isnt $3000/mo or thats tied to some company. I want my own housing and not a fifthwheel which is what we had to resort to up here...
