    Hello,

    I have been with jbhunt intermodal out of nj (its a really good paying sector of truck driving) for almost 5 months(going on military leave for a whole month that should cover my 6 months of experience) but I have realized that slip sitting is not for me, sometimes you get the good clean trucks and other times the one that you cant open the door without having a hazmat suit on. so I asked about owner ops opportunities and they told me I have to lease a truck from them or put my name on a waiting list which is quiet long now is theres' another good intermodal companies besides jb hunt and schneider? im going owner op i have been postponing it for too long. btw i was with werner for 1 1/2 years

    Ask someone next time you are at the rail. Never hurts to ask.

    Ran with BTT for a little while before switching over to RoadLink(RoadOne). BTT would suit him pretty well if he likes that area.

    the elizabeth terminal has about 40 drivers on the waiting list to become owner ops running intermodal so its almost impossible to get a owner operator slot or you can fleece a truck from them and have them control your income, thats why!
