Your looking at the companies, but you need to ask yourself, what am I gonna be happy with. you mention TMC, ive heard from their drivers, and they are very happy, now me, I wouldn't be happy with them cause im 58yrs old. I don't bounce back like I use to when I fall off stuff. so I take it your young. might be good for you though.
ive driven reefer and dryvan, love em both. now with reefer I can haul it all. dry van im limited if I need to haul perishables. I like the challenge of driven a reefer EX. temp sensitive frieight, but sometimes they will try to overload me. dryvan is usually drop and hook, really like that.
the other companies you mention I have heard good and bad so I guess your going to ask a few more drivers a lot more questions.
I wish you luck and im sure you will pick the company that is right for you.

WHY NO NORTHEAST ??????
Ah the memories!!!! of why I love to hate NYC. im in NYC sittin at a light talking to my dispatcher on my cell cause Q-comm did not have a signal, got a call from my phone carrier same day, asked me if I was calling the Caribbean islands and did I realized my phone bill was now up to $5000, found out someone had cloned my cell number in NYC. #2 cars parked everywhere all the way up to the cross street, some even blocking the cross walk, could not make turn, receiver had to call traffic enforcement to ticket then tow cars away so I could turn onto street, sat in the middle of road for over 45 mins to get that done. #3 street so narrow and truck trailer so long , that to back in I had to scrape my bumper against the brick wall to put truck in the hole, called dispatcher and he laugh , said he forgot to tell me every driver did that when it came to that receiver, he said don't worry bout it and I can get it fix later. #4 truck stop parking almost none. I could go on and on, but I must say , it did give my experience and showed me how patient or just brain numb I really am.
