I was a long time Sprint customer, and my wife long time AT&T customer. I had sprint from 2001 until 2010. After traveling the whole country with 2 friends, one Joe who had Verizon, myself on Sprint, and friend Brian on AT&T, Joe always had signal. I actually had second best on Sprint, but I was on roaming most of the time out west. Brian might not of had the option. This convinced me the summer of 2009 that in the future if I wanted to keep traveling to get Verizion.

We have since traveled all over this country, routinely. And I've found that Verizon is simply the best, most continuous coverage.

Now price factors and speed are another topic. But if you want signal about everywhere, my opinion is Verizon. Coupled with a Wilson booster and proper antenna and you are golden.

All that being said, I'm currently doing the happy dance for buying a grandfathered Verizon Unlimited plan.

Not sure of the current status but for a while Verizon was throttling back those with unlimited plans after a certain number of GB's. Might not be all you think it is.

They did briefly and now they aren't. They called it called network optimization, and they got slapped big time by the FCC for doing it. And they agreed to stop doing it.

Another thing they did was terminate all assumption of liability transfers on Oct 30th. We got ours right before that happened. So they've eliminated even more people from the Unlimited plan. Apparently there was a big spike when the iphone 6 came out of folks selling the plan and just leaving it for the new phone.
