Roadrunner:I can't answer your question,because I don't know how they pay (mileage or percentage),
But it seems to me that most flatbed Co,pay percentage,The one I work for does & I do fairly well with it.although I run my butt off,I'm home every weekend,& sometimes during the week.last week I was home 2 night's.

Hey RoadRunner. I saw a Boyd truck today. It was parked in a shopping center in Goldsboro, NC. Think the driver was probably taking a short break. Truck looked pretty decent. So that's all I know, they apparently pull in NC.

I wouldn't be sold on swift too fast.Explore your options.You can do better if you try.Boyd Bros. require 3 Months experience before you can drive.That's what they told me.Check out Trans-am or US Express.They're automatics and that means less work.Hey!Originally Posted by RoadRunner9501

Do ya think they'd let him say bad stuff about em'?Originally Posted by Jagerbomber
I picked up one of those free trucking magazines a few weeks agao and the cover story was an interview with a now owner operator with Boyd Bros. that has been with them for I think it was 10 years, i think he said he went with them staright out of school and has not found a single reason to leave yet. He made the place sound really good. Other than that, I'm not sure about them. .
Or that he would be dumb enough to say bad stuff about em?
