Sorry for the stupid questions guys. Stay safe out there and God bless!

The pay based on pc miler I believe. They DONT use HHG that I know for sure and the dont pay practical miles because they let you decide routing. However you will find that a lot of times their miles are very close to practical routing. Im rarely off more than 5%.

We already correctly answered that question before. Your answer is completely wrong. Are you even a Maverick?

My answer is completely true. Go back a few pages and read where I stated that I was at Prime and was chimming in on my opinion about my experience with the LDR system. Then read forward and you will see were I was asked what year my 2 trucks where. That's the question I answered. No sure as to what question you think has already been answered by everyone else when no one else knows what trucks I had my experiences with but me.

I also never implied or hinted that I was at Maverick. I do apologize if there was any miscommunication on my part, as I thought I was being clear.

I stated that they were Prime trucks first, then he asked about the years so that means he was asking me about Prime trucks, duh.

I do know a little about a lot of companies because I talk to drivers all the time, and read this forum. Never claimed to know all about all.

I've posted all the info that needs to be posted from my experience. Otherwise I'd just be repeating myself.

If you had actually read the post and checked the dates, instead of skimming to try and build a profile of me for your attack, you could have seen that I leased at Prime in 2009 and 2010 and that I stated I drive for a private fleet just this year. I even said in my original post a few pages ago

Sounds like past tense to me.

Once again, the question to me was about the year of my Prime trucks. I know what years they were, not you. Therefore you cannot say whether or not I know or just think I know what I'm talking about on this subject.

I didn't assume anything...HE ASKED. Once again, I clearly posted that they were Prime trucks FIRST. THEN he asked about the years. So I don't have to ask myself anything. You need to ask him why he was interested in the years of my non-Maverick trucks in a Maverick thread...or you could just read because he told us why he was interested in my non-Maverick trucks in a Maverick thread.

You missed the point entirely. To begin with, the subject of my post wasn't about Prime's trucks. It was about the LDR system that just happened to be on Prime's trucks. I was merely giving out information on my experience on 1 of the 2 top brands in the LDR systems (Eaton's Vorad and the Meritor Wabco OnGuard) He was curious as to the years due to bugs in brand new technology. This information is helpful to anyone who read these posts regardless of what company they are at/going to. This technology is not just on Maverick trucks, its all through out the trucking industry.

---------------------

This whole thing started this morning because you did what you keep accusing me of. YOU assumed that you knew what you were talking about when you didn't. You assumed I was giving out misinformation on Maverick when I wasn't. I don't do that. If you read all my posts, I clearly state if the info is from the info I get from a buddy, other truckers, or just my observations. The ones that don't state this are the ones that I have personally worked for and know first hand.

I follow Mavericks threads because I really like the company and the people. I love pulling a tanker, but if I ever left being a tanker yanker, Maverick is the first place I'm applying.

I'm sure you mean well, but slow down and ask someone to clarify first before you start accusing. I'm not the first you've done this to, and this isn't the first time you've done this to me either.

I will not post anymore on this issue. Feel free to attack me more if you wish or move on as I am. Either way it doesn't affect me at the end of the day. I wish you well and have a great day.

...right on Do3, most of us that read these threads aren't driving for the company we're reading about, but we like to learn from other drivers experiences about their trucks & systems what works & what doesn't, so I don't see why DOW was on the attack here...
