CONWAY, we love working for them, they give us all the miles we want, and pay motel rooms when waiting for a load longer then a couple of hours, pay layover.... and most important they DON'T LIE TO YOU!!!

if you want more info email me [email protected]

Oh, and did he mention that they are probably 100% "terminal to terminal" and "drop and hook"?

Frankly, if I was ever inclined to run team....they would be the company I would be going to..... But alas, me falling asleep in a moving truck is like trying to get an elephant to walk on water....

Well, Skywalker,

I SORT of had that problem; I reached a point where when the truck was rolling, and I was in the Sleeper berth, I didn't sleep well....

problem was, that when it was my turn to drive, I was all too ready to fall asleep!!

:shock:

Forget CRST.

Horrible pay scale comparative to what other companies that will hire new teams would pay.

US Xpress will hire teams.
