Which is best for a relative newbie: May, Navajo or Western Express?

I think I need some betel nut and absinthe; dance with the green fairy.

 

lol. Haven’t heard that one in a while.

 

I couldn't agree more. If the OP has a solid 6 months experience and a good record, I believe there are better choices out there than the ones he is considering.

 

Sorry but that whole response is false! I been with navajo for 4 years. We make over $500 take home a week..(I gross 1200-1600 take home 1000-1400 weekly) wtf? If you run hard and do your job you won't have any issues we have newer trucks and every where you go trucks will have issues. We don't have cameras in our trucks.

2019-2016(which are getting faded out) trucks
Apus
Inverters
Direct TV 24inch TV's
Kenworth t680 mostly but some peterbilts and few freightliners.
Some stick shifts left but pushing in the automatics.

Stories you hear from people you should take it with grain of salt. Do the research yourself. Any questions you got about Navajo feel free to ask me. I made an account because of this response.. just had to clear this up.

 

All I can put out there is what I was told personally by people who worked there which is about 5 in the past 3 years. Nobody can completely endorse or reject a company unless they work there of course. Glad to hear a positive comment from a recruiter??.Driver?? Company office person?? Anyway, what ever your status or objective, glad to see a positive response. Maybe some other veteran NAVAJO DRIVERS will chime in.

 

I run in the west. Navajo and western express have crappy equipment. No such thing as a newer truck.. All 2016 and older. From what I see everyday.

 

Yes most of their trucks I see out there are rag

DITTO

 

I'd chose Western Express to be honest. I've heard bad about every starter company. EVERY. So it really doesn't matter. I heard May trucks are governed at 61. I've also been told never to go with what's more comfortable.. like going with a company with a terminal nearby because they will always pull you in and prob want inspections, etc. What a driver once told me when I asked about better to park at terminals or truck stops.

 

Out of those choices, I would go to May. I gross been 5k-6.5k per month here but that's working 4 weeks straight. I think it's one of the better starting companies. I've had a great experience the 14 months I've been here. 61mph does suck....a lot. However, the equipment/ maintenance/ support/ and miles are great.
