    Tried giving Knight another chance. No improvement really. Well, they did put me Into a brand new truck when I called them up telling them I was quitting. Even with the new truck still nothing good. All set up with J&R for the 21st. Will be turning in my truck tomorrow. Sitting at home right now about to start cleaning the truck out in about an hour and enjoy a few Blue Moons during the process!

    Yeah I moved up here when I was about 17 I'd say. I was born and raised in Jonesboro,Ar. Big difference lol. Got almost two years in now. 21 months, have done flats reefer and van. Have my tanker never pulled em though. Got an offer for a local job the other day pulling milk tankers. That's about the only local Class A we have around here. Some blacktop work too but it's seasonal

    Schugel took good care of me while I worked there in fact they message me or call me to come back about once a month or so. I only left for a better job and I got tired of good loads cancelling sometimes. Probably for a lease or a driver thats been there a while but they do have good equipment and they do have miles if you can get them. Good luck and be safe.

    Just landed in Columbus. I gotta say I'm feeling good about this. Never had a company fly me to orientation before. Wondering if I should start a new thread for my experience during orientation and such. But @wfutch79 has that pretty much covered.
