hello to all,

i have driven over the road but have been off the road for 3 years. i am ready to go back on the road and need some help finding a company that will allow me to drive, i do not have expedited experience but want to get into this field. i would like to find a company that has a lease program if i can, but if i have to go ompany driver first that is fine as well.

any help would be great!

thanks

In expedite there really is not company drivers. There is fleet owners at most companies. Driving for one for at least six months is a very good idea to see how you like the industry. Many over the road drivers have a hard time adjusting to the sitting time in expedite.

Look in the classifieds on this site and call recruiters at companies advertising here.

What kind of truck do you want to drive? Do you have a team mate to drive with? I have a straight truck on with FedEx, but I'm only looking for team drivers.

Don't let certain comments bother you. Members here are actually pretty cool and willing to help. Some if these guys are actually funny. Their choices of words, to some who's sensitive, may give the wrong impressions. But believe me, I been here awhile and learned so much from these members, they really are here to help. Please do continue to ask questions, expediting is totally diffrent ballgame.

Sorry bout that. "Interested in driving your truck" looked like you were saying, "Let's go!" :)
