    Go to a random city anywhere in the US on craigslist and there will be an ad by US Express...and Western Express.

    We work at US Xpress & I'm embarrassed to say that in Craigslist Chicago it's full of US Xpress ads. My favorite is the one that says teams can make $10,000 a month.

    Craigslist is the battleground between US Xpress v CRST

    Could somebody explain to me why whenever I see an ad on Craigslist that says great pay, or even worse highest pay in the industry it is always one of the bottom feeding Mega's offering thirty cents a mile? Great pay or best pay seems to be the code word for we don't pay crap!

    Maybe more of you seasoned drivers or anyone thinking they have a thorough knowledge of these companies

    can explain how they stay in business? What kind of business model that offers drivers crap pay and hauls everything dirt cheap

    can survive? I mean is it throw enough crap on the wall and something gonna stick mentality? Possibly some happy drivers

    with them will chime in.:biggrin_2554:
