    I've heared great things about quest global but they require one yr experience.

    We are leaning towards us xpress. Covenant team pay is .39 cpm vs us xpress .48. Hard to turn that down!

    Just based on the scuttlebutt you hear while out and about...I'd go with USX if those are my only two options.

    Thanks for the input. That's most likely where we'll go

    I'd go to USX though I would look long and hard at Armellini out of Miami. They haul flowers. Super Service out of Oklamhumpta FL has decent sign on bonus and teams are getting miles.

    think it's 6 months recent unless you're just out of school. Not sure on that though.

    Stay put... there's no guarantee the next company will be any better.

    If you leave you'll owe Werner for training, right? If the next company sucks then you will quit there, be unemployed, your DAC will show you are a quitter and you'll STILL owe Werner.

    You chose this profession... learn to deal with it. The economy sucks... this ain't 2007. Very few drivers, no matter what they claim, are getting rich each week.

    Have you thought of Benny Whitehead Inc. of Eufaula AL. They do East to West Coast refrigerated runs.
