    A friend of mine drive for them its most likely they hire drivers with speeding ticket, misregard traffic signal citations and all kinda stuff but that doesn't mean they don't have professional drivers, they will treat you like a kid, no respect, 32cpm and brain new trucks. 3 days for the shop to fix your truck. i only know they have an account with home depot in northeast.

    thxs, appreciated...gonna go and check them out....heck iam with Navajo...this has to be a step up... navajo pays no attention to drivers needs and wants or anything else for that matter. no prepass, 401k nothing...all their trailers have ABS problems ect... as for their safety record... just as long as they fix problems found... i think i should be ok....if not wont stay long as i have a good csa number....

    I am a current driver for wfx I have been here 6 months. I run team here and
    We get 7200+ miles a week. We have a brand new Cascadia. The solos are getting 3,000+ miles a week if you are any type of runner. Other have a lot of drop and hook freight. They have authority in all 48 states. Get paid every 2 weeks my checks gross 2,400 or better every pay day. You can make really good money here if your willing to run. I hope this info helps you out.

    Yes it does! Thanks. I'll be new to e-logs and that worries me some. I can live with the 60mph for the .38mi. How much western states running can I expect?
    What bonuses are in play to get to .44?
