    Sry i have been working. Yea great people. If u don't get miles u want don't be afraid to let them know. They stress being legal. Insurance isn't great but cant always have your cake and eat it to. but you meet the president he will eat with u and u wont even know who he is then he'll talk to the class. I dont got nothing bad on them.

    Like i said. They will crack up with you. i am local but when you go up there they got a pic of u on the wall and they will talk to you just like a friend. Got a friend otr rocky start on miles. But if u just tell dispatch whats up and not blow your top and just tell them what you want and they will give you your miles.

    getting close to time for my bestway orientation. my friends at bestway still say they are a great company, their only complaint would be that sometimes the load planners get in over their head and make rookie mistakes. but that could be expected with a growin company, at least thats what im hopin and that its not a habit. anybody else got any comments on bestway before i make the final call?? any questions ill be glad to answer if i can.

    So, any updates? Looks like we've got a couple of folks thats have been working for them a few months now. I've seen Jonathans posts here and now an ad in Craigslist here in Terre Haute. How much do they pay? Anyone know their US DOT #? I can't seem to find them on Safestat searching by name. Appreciate any help.
