    He says he wants 0 touch. So that takes flatbed out of the mix. Sure, you are not lumping freight on a skateboard, but you are helping load, chaining, strapping, tarping. It is allot more work but I have found it to be rewarding in the past when I did it. And I did not gain the weight I have in the past 4 years running dry van.
    Swift is still running Central fairly separate from what I am hearing. It is a profitable company, so why screw it up. Heck, swift has some very good dedicated accts. Maybe they could even add more of those to Centrals mix.
    Yea, I am not a mega company fan. But for a newer driver with family at home, 800-1000 per week and home most nights on a dedicated with Swift is a pretty good deal. And they do have quite a bit of that. With the Sears dedicated stuff at least.
    I really think half the bad crap about them is coming from lazy trainee drivers that do not know how a large trucking company works.

    If you live in ohio go with millis, .36 & .34 (routing)? You won't have to change your license to another state.
