    Those the only options? Factory work seems better then the slave wages those two pay.

    Do you want $25 tarp pay with company issued equipment or buy your own equipment for $50 tarp pay?

    Where are you at? I'm sure someone can give you other options.

    Do you have any experience? What would be your reason to narrow it down to those two choices?

    Someone asked a similar question earlier, my reply to you will be the same in reference to western express.

    Do yourself a favor and read some of the threads on this forum, you'll do yourself a huge favor in looking elsewhere

    In my opinion the correct answer would be neither.

    But, if those were your only two choices, I'd probably go with Prime. As slow as their trucks are, at least they tend to run decent equipment (for base company models anyway).

    But, then again, even CR England doesn't typically run junk on the road (but you still couldn't pay me enough to drive for them).
