    If I may, what is it about these 3 specific companies? What are you looking for in a company? Go with the one that seems to best suit your wants/needs.

    swift because they are right up in Denver, Which is an hour north of where i live. But i would like an excuse to get out of Colorado. Prime mainly because i have read good and bad. And with Transam, I talk a lot to one of the guys i work with and he really liked them. My biggest worry is that i havnt been behind the wheel of a tractor trailer for a couple of years and my skill with a standard was shotty to begin with. I know Transam runs those auto shifts, which i think would be good for my because i pick up driving...well anything really quickly.

    I drove auto in my local job until they got us manual trucks, they are convenient for eating and smoking and for hanging an arm out of the window, but they go through every gear which is a pain in the ### at times
