    Got offers from both being a veteran my GI Bill is gonna pay for the school. With CRST it's expedited, and they quoted .41 cents a mile but it's team so .205 a mile then right?

    When my dad drove team, one of the 2 drivers was lead. He was the one responsible for the paperwork, etc. Not trainer. Anyway, he got the penny, so if it is like it used to be, the lead driver would get $0.21, and the other would get $0.20. But don't forget, the reason you run team is to get more miles, so it is $0.20 of 4,000-6,000 miles.

    That being said, I would have to put CRST as the second of the bottom feeder, Inc. mega carriers, so choosing Schneider would be a better pick of these 2.

    To get your foot in the door Schneider isnt a bad choice. They pay reasonably well. Just some of their policies take some getting used to. But go with them for 12 months then open your options from their.

    Many vets go with Schneider Bulk, which is tanker division. @19d is one of them; he's making the big bucks.

    I was actually talking with them few days ago in the office about the vet programme for a mate of mine. I gave him the info and he said it was one of the better ones He has been offered. The other comparison he said was TMC.
