    Don't make a decision unless you talk to team drivers currently working with a company. THERE IS NO AMOUNT OF INTERNET INFO THAT IS BETTER THAN CURRENT EMPLOYEE INFO.

    Are you set on those two companies? If you already have a partner lined up then just go to a premium teaming company like ltl linehaul, or a small reefer outfit.

    TwT trucking out washington is great...60 cpm

    Where is your location?
    Old Dominion Freight Lines is where the money is. They hire new cdl grads and love teams.
