    I would not recommend this company to anyone.
    They may help you break into the trucking industry to show you the ropes, beyond that, they will run their drivers ragged until you either call it quits or drop dead. Expect to see around 1800 to 2100 miles weekly, a good company will give their solo "company" drivers closer to 3 thousand miles a week and possibly home weekends.

    How is 1800 to 2100 being run raged?

    Pretty much everyone in OTR knows about WE.

    Not to be a douchebag here or anything but isn't running a #### load of miles the name of the game in otr? I thought that is how y'all make your money?

    Do they offer lease options?
     
  7. sometimes they should just put a thing up here on some certain companies I like the call the greatest hits. always appear as people get burned by them.
    but be like you know what put it onto a continued thread instead of creating a new thread of the same company that they repeat over and over and over and over again... just my own observation
     
    FlaSwampRat and Intothesunset Thank this.

    I have to chime in here because if you drop dead after 1800 miles per week, then you were already in bad health. Also, in what world are you going to get 3000 miles per week and be home every weekend?

    Just figured I would throw this out there. I drive 2000-2500 miles a month so there are options for driving less miles but the trade off is I probably do another 2000 miles a week with a handtruck and a pallet jack lol.

    Big deal. Isn't it expected that they treat people like ####. No surprise there.
