In Chattanooga, TN. Willing to go as far as Atlanta, Huntsville, Nashville, Knoxville, even western NC. I'll pull flat, van or get haz-mat if needed. Wouldn't want to try a tanker until I'm a little more experienced.

Last I knew USXpress, Paschall Truck Lines (PTL), Covenent, Southern Refigerated (SRT) are a few. As to how good they are that is up to you to decide.

Looks like you are looking for a local/regional job. Having no experience, you will have a very hard time finding one. Try: CR England, PRIME, Covenant(the first three may not be the best but it is a foot in the door), Mavrick, TMC, PGT.

I'll go to Covenent if I have to but considering they own Swift says enough for me. Most OTR's I talk to say they are shocked to two companies are still on the road. USXpress has a good rep here but again the layoffs

With limitation like that, you just knocked out every OTR company that takes students.
