    If you are working your wont be guaranteed to have the opportunity to pop in on mom. You need a company that will let you take hometime on Phoenix...and quite of few have bases in Phoenix so it shouldn't be an issue. The real issue is splitting that home time between Phoenix and back home.

    If seeing mom is that important I say ditch the wife. You only have one mom but you can have as many wives as you want.

    Bumping this thread. I've come to figure that I need a company that has terminals both close to home here in PA and in Phoenix. Running "through" Phoenix might not give me exactly what I need. I figure a company with terminals in both locations would have freight the originates and finals close to both locations. From what I've figured, that leaves Swift, Werner, and Knight...and maybe Heartland, unless there are a few others I don't know about. Of those three, I'm guessing that Knight would be the better option. Swift is Swift, and also has driver facing cameras, so they are a no go. Werner's reputation is well known by me (as well as anyone else in the industry) so they are out.

    I have applied to Knight, so we'll see what happens. Like I said, there is one company who has a dedicated run from PA to the west coast, but it's Vegas and not Phoenix, so it wouldn't really work for me.
