    Trimac>Dana>bulkmatic>highway transport>quality carriers is probably how I'd rate them.

    I think Trimac has the highest earning potential but guys on here say the tractors suck. I've pulled Dana lease tankers and I can tell you they suck, not sure on trucks.

    Trimac has a new CEO. Their equipment isn't the best, but it's safe. They are slowly beginning to upgrade the fleet.

    Somebody at Quality has been prodding me to apply. Supposedly they have dedicated runs out of where I am, but I'm not reading good here about QC.

    QC can be good or not so good. Some terminal are corporate owned while others, called affiliate terminals are like franchises. The pay and bennies can differ widely between them. Best to go and talk to the terminal manager and some of the drivers at the terminal that you may be interested in.

    I’m sure I’ll get a lot of flack for this but, try Trimac. They have a terminal in Taylor . When my hired co driver needed a local gig, I took him over there, and vouched for him. That was 8 yrs. ago. He’s still there, and making 90K a year.
