Tmc trucks
If you go to tmc as a recent school graduate and finish there training what kind of truck should you expect to get? A 379 or a 386?

I've never seen any TMC drivers with a 386. You ocassionally see one of them in a 387.

Their trucks are 379, 388, and 378's. A few 387's like stated before.

They have the nicest stuff.
I won't go there, I throw a hip I need a company to replace, as Otter would say.

I've been seeing more and more of the 388's and 387s running through the Kansas area. They must be getting rid of their trusty trademark tractors, the 379s.

Yup, their replacing the 379's with 388's
A guy I talked to that's been there 19 years said the new guys kept running over curbs and didn't know how to drive the long nose trucks correctly. He had a 389 though. Said after almost 20 years he wanted to keep the long nose so they traded his 379exhd for a 389. He's been with only TMC ever since he started.
