    Seriously, check out West Side Transport out of Cedar Rapids, IA. If you run their network fleet, you get a $900 per week min. Pay commitment. That is a great deal for a new driver. Message me if interested, I have 20 months with them, they have been good to me, I have been good to them as well. I am ranked 14 in miles out of over 500 trucks.

    Also, check into Chinatown's recommendations. He is pretty good with this stuff.

    If you choose wisely, you can skip all the trauma of starting with a crap megacarrier. Things change in trucking. 15 years ago, CR England was a better carrier and required 2 years min. Experience. Listen to some folks here, and you can get off to a better start if you want to drive.

    Whatever you do, don't go to Cringe land. Look at Chinatown's recommendations. Best wishes!

    If you really want to lose you sanity run the east coast.
    My suggestion..find a relative in California and relocate.
    I'd rather deliver pizza or newspapers than run ny,nj,dc,balt,philly,pa and west Virginia.
     
    New2thagame Thanks this.

    Chinatown, you do realize you just responded to a thread with the last post from 12/10/17?


    Why are so many dead and gone threads being resurrected for no good reason?
