Might need more than 9 months, but consider Old Dominion:

My wife and I have worked for this company almost 5 years now. It takes 2 years to reach the top pay scale which is .6233cpm - we bring home $1200 each after taxes, 401k, medical etc. We run 6000 miles a week, gone 5 days, home 2. Every week.

You need doubles and hazmat, and a good record. They don't put up with unsafe drivers. The turnover is less than 10 percent. I've never seen them advertise for drivers.

Major terminals have fuel, scales, showers - we drop and hook, fuel and scale and are gone in about an hour. If there is no freight you get a paid motel and paid $7.50/hour each. 5 free company uniforms provided, then $100 allowance each year. Breakdown handled by third party, just call the number and wait - also paid at $7.50/hr each. Yearly pay increase, 2011 was 1.9cpm. Match on 401K, 6% they match 3%. Yearly discretionary match to 401k.

No pet, no rider. Basic trucks, but often replaced. Elogs, (BLU), zero paperwork, units are scanned in the gates and automatically sènt to payroll. 65mph trucks. Safety bonus gets higher on consecutive years, we are on $450, next year $500(each).

This will be our last driving job. We will be debt free mid 2013 thanks to them (2 rentals, our house and 2 vehicles), so the wife can retire and I can go local. Hire here if you like driving, look elsewhere if you enjoy truck stops and loading docks.

Any questions, feel free to ask.
