    Looking at companies with terminals in the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area. How often are Boyd drivers getting home and for how long?

    Also looking at Gypsum Express, Maverick, Millis

    Gypsum would be the best for home time. Maverick would be best overall.

    If you are from that area there is no problems at all. One of the main accounts is North American Stainless in Ghent

    I found this on Boyd's site (With Speed Rewards, Truck Speed will be set up to 67 MPH) is this true and I have heard that they will fire you if your MPG is to high.

    I don't think they would fire you for your MPG being too high, but I have heard of them firing people for their MPG being too low.

    Yeah you know what I meant just got it backwards, I have heard there trucks are governed at 67 so they want you to run at 60 to save fuel I don't get it.

    If your MPG's are not within their preferred range the truck is governed to 62 but the better the MPG's the higher it's governed to. (with Boyd)
