    Hello all I started my career with Schneider but they do not ave a terminal in colorado whichs makes my home time a pain in the ###. plus the miles are way to unpredictable im a family man that needs a steady check. I am a ter 3 driver meaning i average 630miles a day in a truck governed at 65mph. schneider was a good company to learn with but im looking for consistency in my checks.and more CPM :) I have a very good driven record before i got my CDL and after.
    I have had only 3 tickets in my life all speeding last ticket i got before my CdL was in 2007speeding 64 in a 55 no accidents ever.

    In the year i have been OTR NO dot violations or preventable accidents (A swift driver hit the back of my trailer in a pilot parking lot i was parked. A teenager cut in front of my truck in LA cliped my front right tire i was stopped in traffic when she miss judge her merg into my lane.

    i have to stay out 28 to 30 days at a time to pay bills my home time is only 3 days i need this to change

    Look at ShipEx out of SLC. They are straight salary, with a lot of bonuses available.

    That’s what I was gonna say. ShipEx is probably the best option in that area.

    If you are in Colorado get on with an LTL outfit, you could be home daily and make great money. Look up Old Dominion, Estes, Saia, Xpo, FedEx, Ups Freight and yrc.

    Good luck

    That sounds interesting do you have an idea of what they would pay salary to a one-year experienced driver

    I've heard good things about Denny Transport but not sure if they run any teams.

    Magnum LTD out of Fargo. It isnt CO but they run through East CO a lot, equipment is 3 years or newer. You choose your home time. 3000 miles a week is easy to grab. Good cpm, sign on bonus, and other bonuses. Mostly reefer driving pete 579s, mostly auto, using peoplenet.

    Maybe worth looking into?
