    With a timid go ahead from my wife, I have been looking long and hard at Millis Transfer, Big G Express, Prime and Titan Transfer. I realized they all have their good qualities, and their own faults. Although not really a fault, the fact that Millis only covers East of the Mississippi is a drawback for me... and Prime covers three areas of trucking (Reefer, Flat and tank) that I do not care for, and Titan seems to be just missing the mark... but I cannot put my finger on it. That leaves Big G, and they require 6+ months, and do not train...

    For what ever reason, I keep coming back to Millis... More if I know more I suppose.

    North Alabama. Situated between Nashville, Atlanta and Memphis to name some bigger cities. Knight has also come on to my radar tonight. But I digress, this is a Millis thread, and Millis is now one of five companies I am researching, so I will start my own thread(s)... especially since I have already started a thread on Big G Express.

    I feel that it would be extremely negligent and disrespectful to not mention this positive aspect of my trainer. He taught me well when it comes to drive time and availability. I am about to finish my 6th week straight, and never needed a 34. Looking forward to seeing family and sleeping in my bed. Hope all of you have a happy turkey day.
     
    bigred81, Cyoteugly, DRAGON64 and 2 others Thank this.
