There are some previous posts about SRT, if you want to do a search.

I drove for them, about a year ago. I went through their training program and then went solo.

You drive 48 states and Canada. Personally, never went to NYC, but I have been told that they only do the outskirts of NYC. East coast - yes VA, WV, SC, NC, FL are the ones i saw frequently.

They have only 1 terminal - Texarkana, AR. A number of drop yards around the country, and they also are allowed into most of Covenant's yards.

The only times that I had trouble getting home on time was either when I screwed up or the truck broke down. I usually stayed out a max of 3 weeks. Miles - I never had a problem with them. They gave me the miles I asked for and could handle.

When I left they were just getting new International's in (they are in the process of phasing out the purple trucks). They haul both dry and reefer loads.

thanks
