What's with the flaming? I only told my story, have no reason to talk smack, I was looking forward to going with them. I've been driving on and off since '95 so I pretty well know what I am doing, not that I know it all but I've been around a bit. I was told one thing and when it came time to roll the story changed, nothing more nothing less. I heard exactly what was going on perfectly clear thru several conversations. No biggie. I found something else making good money, company paid benefits, sleeping in my own bed at night. From talking to others they seem like a decent outfit, just not for me.

I completed a driving school here in florida called truck driving institute inc. or tdi.have my cdl with hasmat.I've have been looking for a company to hire out of florida for 3 months wil - trans is the first. all other is saying a no hiring area.zip 32504.I'm glad I came passed this thread, I've been looking for info on wil trans.

Randy is back? He quit because he got tired of lying to drivers...anyway...I drove for wil-trans (posted what I knew about them at the beginning of the thread)...If you decide against wil-trans...I overheard 2 drivers that work for Western Express, one of them lives in Florida...might be worth a shot..

No up front money,and get paid while training.we offering a great job with top of the line equipment and some of the best freight offered in the industry.

For about one week the traiees are brought in,they will be here with wil trans for direct training. Trainees are not wil trans employees at this time.

Company based drivers will also be available starting at .28 cpm to .36 cpm depending on experience. well what do thank???????

Hay! Thanks I did give them a ring. sent them the app. I'll call tomorrow to let you what they siad.

well I did call;but because I'm 6'1'' and about 160pd.they said no.what the heck is that about. THE NFL HAS LINE BACKER WHO 300 +PD.They seem to be able to touch there toes. No really I can understand being 300 pd in a truck. With just in & out of the truck.But I'm not floppen around because I've fallen and I cant get up! ha ha ha wheee hear we go.

Just to be clear on this: You need to have completed a training school and have your CDL to begin the Wil-Trans training program?

Sounds very much like the Prime training program. IMO, Prime does a pretty good job with the training deal... I imagine that WilTrans will do a good job as well.

Hubby and I are teaming with Wil-Trans (I'm waiting for orientation while he's driving for them now). It's hard to sign a contract and pay for more training but.....let's face it there aren't very many companies out there running the miles they are and paying decent.

Not by the web site;It said they send you to C-1 driver training school for 3 weeks to get your cdl in same town,city,state.I'm don't sure I did not ask.I my self already went to cdl school with job placement program that sucks or it's that bad.
