    What did the pay look like? If I live 2 hours from JAX what would my home time look like? And is it only company drivers or also OOs?

    Cowan has multiple fleets. O/O L/P are expected to run at least two weeks out according to their website. Here in MD they have a good rep.

    How is their L/P program? I been approved to run and lease thru them. My truck is too old and too heavy to run for them(weighs 22K bobtail). looking at 2012 peterbilt 384. should take about 2 years to pay it off, just worried about truck and miles controled by the same company?

    looking at 2010 peterbilt 387, if I purchase outright, dont want to sell my green beast(if oilfields ever open back up) Ive checked with their driver here in Salt Lake City and they seem pretty happy.

    Is that the little terminal right off of 900s, next to I215? They have a pretty decent turn over for being such a small yard. I had thought about them as well, but whenever I ran into their drivers around town , they all seemed pretty rushed and stressed
