    What do you think they would pay somebdy with 6+ years of CDL experience? Been out of OTR for a while and I'm thinking of going back in. I've been driving the whole time.

    Yes he died in Feb of last year. Heart attack if I remember correctly. His wife took over the business. As far as starting pay Pete1 your prob looking at .25 Cpm if you have been off the road for more than 18 months.

    Good on you trying to offer assistance and solutions instead of feeding the trolls! I too am with England, and while I'm newer to the company than either of you, I've run the roads for a few years prior. Seems like every England driver I've met so far has been cool as hell. Just last night in fact, I made a couple of new friends. A lease operator and his second seat that he trained. We talked for quite a while at a Flying J in Idaho, found out we had a lot in common, and wound up putting on some music and breaking out some glow sticks and LED gloves and dancing to techno in an empty parking space. Who says you can't have fun with Englanders!
