    I am certain that USA has lost some big account, because they have closed terminal and drivers are not getting the mileage. I left in Feb. because i couldn't get more than approx 700- 900 miles a week. I cannot justify being gone for weeks at time for a couple hundred bucks a week. I can do that at a fast food restaurant and be home every day. In any event goodluck driver.

    The only terminal that has closed was bethel,pa. and that was months ago. As far as miles most of us are still running good miles.

    I think the economy is flat in general.

    I've heard things are okay for USA because of their diversified loads. Car haulers are dropping like flies.

    I had concidered applying to USA Trucking. I've heard they are a fairly good company to work for. Hope that hasn't changed.

    I may have reached my limit with them. I had a medical emergency they couldn't get me home for (infected tooth/root canal) . I shudder to think what they'll do when my wife gets into her third trimester.

    Sending out resumes now.

    Or not,,, I've been playing phone tag with a tow truck company in NYC for a month now. Called USA and they told me I could work regionally from NYC (nobody else wants it) So I might go back to them after I get my apartment sold and my licence renewed with my new addy.

    Sucks I lost my old rig to "the shuffle" Whoever's got it,,, TAKE care of it ######, I left you a good ride!
