    Most companies in Chicago have white ones.

    If you're looking for a job and are limiting your choices to just those that run 780's, you should rethink what matters in a job. Otherwise, carry on.

    Or conversely, you can politely ask what companies might be operating equipment you’d like to be in, and thank those that respond with helpful information. Carry on.

    Yep, one could do that. And when done on a public forum, he/she can expect answers that he/she may or may not like. Or answers that may make them think about other options.

    Seriously, why would anyone pass up a job that runs Freightliners or Pete's and pays more with better benefits just to drive a Volvo?

    Not saying a Volvo job won't be the better one. Just saying keep options more open. Makes sense to me.

    I don't see 780s based out of Chicago it's mostly the smaller model trucks

    Look closer. They are the ones with the left leg up on the dash, flip flops, warm up suits and those sexy Porsche Carerra sun glasses. If that doesn’t help then look for anything that says Elk Grove Village on the door.

    Transco Lines has a bunch of 780s/860s, probably all for teams though
