    I can only speak for LTL as they offer the best jobs around as far as hometime, pay, turnover rate (avg 8% vs OTR avg. of 100%+) In my opinion these are the top LTL jobs.

    TOP LTL's
    UPS Freight
    FedEx Freight
    ABF
    Old Dominion - driver apprenticeship program
    Southeastern - driver apprenticeship program
    Dayton Freight

    TOP Foodservice
    Gordon Foods

    Well, the making money part will come in time and so will the being home part. We definitely would like regional (eventually- if not starting out). From talking to one company, they start out OTR and after some months are able to switch to regional but he told me realistically that my husband could be OTR for 6-9 months. I'm not sure if that's most or all companies.

    If your tired of your man, send him OTR, if you want him home every night and weekends to do the "honey do list", find him something local. It's up to you !
