    Millis is ok, but you'll be stuck in the eastern half of the USA.
    CFI is good for seeing the USA running coast to coast.
    Where is your location; city/state?

    I'd consider these because I really like long haul trucking running coast to coast:
    CFI - dry van
    Jim Palmer Trucking - refrigerated
    Wilson Logistics - dry van
    Prime Inc. - refrigerated

    because their trainer couldn't teach me more than how to cheat HOS logs.....failed the GA drivers test twice and I was gone. Went to my local Community College, got my CDL, and 7 years later, here I am.
    Millis, like any other trucking companies have their good and their bad. But they're mostly good.

    Cfi, you get your licence in school, not while delivering loads. Then, when you go out with a trainer, you work a solo clock, no team driving. In team driving, one of you is always sleeping, so not much learning or teaching going on.
