    Not a bad company.

    have you talked to William Payne in recruiting? Honest person.

    Funny story here. We had a driver from Fl do all the paperwork, travel to Carnesville, Ga and found out he mistook Davis Express out of Starke for Davis Transfer

    Not a o/o but I've been there over 5 years. The one's I've talked to seems content with what they are making. I do know Davis has added quite a few Texas runs lately.

    Davis does run elogs and basically leaves you alone to do your job.
     
    chris21 Thanks this.

    If not, how do you know they're being honest and ACTUALLY giving you the true 70 percent of 100 percent of the rate?
