Profile For Rita L.

Thanks. I have 4 months on my own & 6 weeks training. First, I am wanting to move because I can't get a truck that can stay out of the shop. I'm on truck number 4 now. And I'm currently at Freightliner putting it in the shop. 1st truck - electrical issues, in the shop for over a week; 2nd truck - loaner, only used to take to another company terminal for an OO, 3rd truck - in 31 days it was in the shop 8 times....EIGHT! And for days at a time. This last truck is having issues with the oil gauge fluctuating, while I'm driving. The gauge will go from 50 psi to almost 0 psi & then back up. I like staying out & running. 1st time out I was OTR for 2 months before I went home. Secondly, I'm wanting to change because I'm not getting miles when I do run. Example, pick up a load on Friday, 300 miles to receiver, but delivery is Monday p.m., I'm forced to do a 34 reset - when I don't need to. In 4 months I have had one check that was over $1,000. Every check since has been $300 or less. I can't live on $300 a week.

Help! Which is the best company for a woman driver (solo for only 4 months)? I am wanting to make a move but with a great company.
