    I think it's 62... but I don't know.

    I have heard they get a fuel bonus for going slow and saving their fuel. I cringe when I approach a PRIME. Of course, I LMAO when they blow my doors off.

    Not yet. I'll do that now. I want to run long haul refrigerated as a standard so that seems worth checking into before I make my call on Monday.

    Guarantee pay outweighs the cap on MPH! You guys are wonderful for giving me places to look into. Word of mouth does go farther than advertising.

    Quick question for you guys hanging out here with me... what have you heard/what do you know about Knight Transportantion? I understand they have a CDL Training program also called Squire. Has anyone here been with Knight or know someone who has?

    I've been watching YouTube videos on truckers working or who have worked for both companies. But I would like a little one on one with all of you here.

    I talked to a guy that said he worked for knight for six years said he ran a regional route always gone 5-6 home 1-2 said that he told recruiter he would only go if they gave him weekly hometime did that same route five years lost the customer his last yr there now he works for Ashley says he always felt like he made decent money and that they did right by him regardless of what everyone else says.

    Thanks for your feedback! I hear such mixed reviews about all of them that it's hard to know if one is making the right company choice in the direction of training and long term employment.

    Would it be fair to say that a lot of the bad reviews I see are from drivers who habitually ran over fire hydrants or missed their load times too much?

    It seems to me that most of the ones complaining about a company that others rave about might be ones who were pushed out by lack of miles to get rid of them for screwing up too much. Would this be a fair assessment or am I way off base here?
