    I looked at Stidham back in the 80's but went in a different direction. All I heard was good then, last I heard they were still good.

    Oh I run the 5 corridor and can get home once a week. Plus there are probably better companies in the nw that run maxi's like Levitts or central oregon. I'm not sure how much experience you got.

    I can't stand them new automatics. We got some here in this new glass fleet in NC. Luckily they didn't make me take one. All the former werner drivers we stole along with the account got them instead.

    Avoiding automatics at this point seem feudal... on another note i find it odd that the pole fleet drivers average a much higher yearly income than the maxi fleet. However the maxi fleet pays more. Alot more sitting for maxi? No miles? Interesting

    OTR vs Regional is most likely the reason there.
