You got trucks at load 1 Dave? Didn't know that.

What are you referring to a 10.5 hour clock?

And then not pay you. Go right ahead. Ahhh!

This volvo has got to be the best tractor I have ever driven. It is a 2011 model. It is really quiet,10 speed and averages 7.2 mpg pulling 45,000 pound paper loads. Has thermoking apu,2000 watt inverter. Overall I love it.

Hahaha ah I just peed myself. Sucks I got all this time on my hands.

If I loaded mine up all these o/o van guys would cry.

How will you know if he looks it up?

What stress and hassle? Lol

True but even if the worst fleet owner (maint. Wise) was paying for fuel he would make sure he did what it took to get good mpg.

The problem with drivers paying for fuel is some owners don't care about mpg and if the truck need air filter,fuel filter etc they may drag it out longer decreasing mpg since they don't care how fuel efficient it is.

The 60/40 + fsc can be better deal if the truck gets good fuel mileage. I always did the other and didn't pay fuel.

Glad they don't enforce that where I live. I sometimes take my whole truck and trailer and park in front of my house and I live in a tight subdivision. Anywho congrats on taking the leap and keep us updated with you guys progress rymilburn.

Get a sprinter and look at load 1. Cargo vans are like a roach infestation lately. Just look at any flying j or Walmart. Lol

Not totally agreeing with that. Orientation where I'm at now was small (8 people) and they made it very entertaining just to keep everyone's attention. That said panthers orientation was very boring and the food sucked BUT at the same time I was there for a job and not food and entertainment...

I got transamerican through my company but unfortunately havent used it yet lol. But have been told by other drivers it is among the best company health plans.

It sucks everywhere right now. I'm in t/l and sitting at 900 miles for the week. Not happy camper at all and may be looking for a change.

Kyle also I forgot to mention check in to mesilla valley transportation out of las cruces nm. They run a lot of west coast but they do run all over. Plus they have awesome fuel bonus.

I started with prime. They had good and bad but get the exp and move on. I drive for ozark and I love it but it is a company that expects drivers who don't need their hands held. In your area also check out Gordon and if you want flatbed look at system transport. Both rated among top training...

Proof is in the numbers.

Some things to consider though xiggi, unless you own the truck are you really going to make more than what I make? I mean the 40% is usually less cpm than what I get, plus inconsistent miles and then a 1099 and the only business write offs you get are per diem and anything you buy for the truck...
