    I lived in Joplin and couldn't get home for church once a month.So I changed dp that made them mad and they just cut my miles to nothing.They know and use every dirty trick in the book your DAC will be in jeopardy for sure.

    I was with them in the preConway days. They were alright. The trucks were very nice. I resigned a few months after the Conway deal, but that had no bearing on me leaving. I suspect that they've gone downhill somewhat, at least according to friend that is still there.
    Now USX? I was there as well. I can't handle that type of disorganization or lying. I never felt comfortable there. I think I'd go with CFI/Conway between the two. But that's just my opinion. Good luck!:biggrin_25525:

    Ya, that's pretty much what my bud has said. They were alright when I was there. A lot of primma donnas around. Most trucks were sold off at around 375k or so. And a lot the drivers would actually get upset about having an old truck. I thought that to be funny. Crap, the first truck I drove had 900k+ on it, but ran and looked decent.
    It's too bad they've seemed to go downhill. Really don't have much to say bad, and really not much to say good either. They were workable at one time, but always seemed a bit on the anal side.:biggrin_25525:

    Everett, have you checked out the "Inside scoop" section? When you go there, the first screen that pops up has many of the larger companies on it. Look for Conway, I think it is.:biggrin_25525:
