I have leased to a few companies and run my own authority on a few. I have found the smaller companies CAN be good, IF your have the right dispatcher in place.
Currently the company i am leased to pays 80% of total Gross, including FSC, i'm averaging $2 a miles and dong 5K a week on a 5 day week without killing myself. Some weeks a little better. The Dispatcher i deal with is rather good at putting together lanes and watching the rates and areas to send me so he has been doing a pretty darn good job of keeping my rate per mile up there. I don't think i have done less then $2 a mile yet, (on a weekly average).
I generally run the Eat coast, but has others that run most of the 48. he can do whatever you prefer and home time as you want.
Its a small company and he only wants to deal with a handful of trucks, so he can pay good attention to them.
If your interested in the company i'm running with let me know, just message me.

The trucks will call Florida home for now, but I'll not opposed to having a driver that lives closer to better lanes. I know that itself can be an issue, like if I have to go get the truck if the driver quits or gets ill, but it's something to look at. Currently, we are in Lakeland FL, so that's where they'll be. I'm not opposed to just keeping them here in Florida and running them local. I could lease them on to a Drayage company around here and have them make a decent amount of money. Also, was thinking of utilizing Landstar, Mercer, or one of the other better companies to lease on to, have them dispatch the drivers, and me only worry about the maintenance side of things. The trucks are free and clear of any payments and I own them out right. Putting them to work is a great idea I think. I make enough money now doing what I do to survive, do anything extra would just go into a maintenance account and be reinvested back in the company. Eventually I'd like to get my own authority and own accounts and go into it full steam ahead.

So like I said, working them OTR is my ideal goal, but running them locally is an option too.
