Pros

Get to see some great country side.

Cons

Bad communication period! Sent on runs that they ended up cancelling when I arrived. Poor updates on construction when running routes to locate. Placed on hold forever and it's your cell phones minutes when trying to reach Driving managers. Trucks slow and old, need to update and have them properly cleaned during issue. DOT infractions on truck were not corrected and your expected to run. Alot of short runs and no money to be made.
