Business Outlook

Pros

Good driver support by dispatch, good opportunities to drive regional or over the road doing dry van or refrigerated, and well maintained late model trucks. Easy to reach mileage bonuses.

Cons

They like for you to run your 14 hour clock out and work 6 days a week which makes it hard to have any kind of life outside of the truck.
