    OK Guys Im trying to help my brother out after filling out tons of apps my little brother has only had three offers. As of right now his options are:

    1. Knight Refer @.33cpm
    2. Southern Refer @32cpm
    3. CR England @.285 cpm

    Now I've been driving for a bit but only ever driven with C.R. of these three. If these were your only three options which would you choose and why? I know that this will generate some negative responses but I need the feedback, as he has to choose by Monday.

    i had friends stay on after Knight bought out Roads West, most stayed awhile. Several went to Pride after that. Keep trying more options will show up.... Have a look at May trucking, they are from Ore and take students from what i've read here

    I've never personally worked for any of these companies, but from what I've seen out on the road and what I've heard from drivers that I've talked to, if I had no other choice than these three companies, I would choose Knight hands down.

    that being said, I would never leave my currant job for any of them.

    Knight by default.
    Check SRT for charging dead drivers family to return belongings . . .
    Check any one of hundreds of posts on CRE.

    Almost like voting for politicians.
