After graduating truck school way back in 2004 I went for a look at USA Truck. Stripped equipment (not even jake brakes or tilt/telescopic steering wheels), crappy maintenance, some drivers who looked like they take a bath every April whether they need it or not. Only a matter of time before J.B. Hunt gobbles them up. My advice, stay away and instead take a look at Schneider or Crete. 8)

Like every other company truck isn't stripped down to bare nothing :roll:


My uncle drives for them, they treat him well, gets plenty of miles, and they get him home when he needs to. No complaints from him so far

i started driving for usa truck 6 months ago after obtaining my cdl. my truck is a 2006 international, it does have jakes, and so far the company has treated me very well. i have had no maintenance issues so far but i am begining to think that a lot of what happens depends on how i interact with my dispatch, and the maintanence dept regarding the timeliness of pm scheduling.
