    So, they look like a good company and when I talked with Vicki, she was very nice. Do you get the kind of miles you want, the equipment good? Thanks for the info.

    Be careful with Navajo. They say they pay you one rate. Lets say 30 cents a mile. they take 2 cents per mile per diam. Then, they say that 1/2 is pay, and 1/2 is expenses. So, when you leave them, your unemployment is really only caculated on 1/2 of what you really earned. Also, it shorts you on your reported earning toward you social security retirement. It makes a huge difference. Instead of getting $300 a week unemployment, you end up with $157. not enough to live on.

    i was talking about Navajo. There equipment is good, and the staff is nice, but you will get taken advantage of, pay wise. With the they only declare 1/2 of your income as income.

    Congradulations on your dedicate run. You have to be really trusted, or you would have not gotten that. they can make life fantastic or misreable, depending on the run. I had one that was Rodchester, NY, to Oregon. Great run.
    Then I had one from JFK airport, to Atlanta airport, almost killed us.
