    Abilene Motor Express is a good choice. This company hires drivers that have been off the road longer than 2 years.
    Edit : fast trucks; 72 mph.

    Swift, Werner, and TransAm?
    Are you for real?
    This seems like the punchline for a bad joke.
    Have you looked at Covenant, Celadon, or PAM, or JCT? Many more to look at.

    Celadon pays $1000.00 a week for vacation pay. If you don't take a vacation, you still get the pay.

    Add western express on your list. They are right up there with Werner and swift.
    There are much better companies out there.
    Post your location and experience you’ll get some recommendations.
