Well just starting a new thread about Magnum to give a new view point.
Before I came here I had only driven flat bed and I loved it. Trust me folks, if you've never done it I can promise you those folks earn their money. I would still be doing it myself but trying to catch a falling tarp off of a super coil gave me a career ending SLAP tear shoulder injury. (Yes I know I should have just let it fall but instinct kicked in and I grabbed it.)
Anyway after trying a local gig for a bit which was great for about 3 months then just became so boring I couldn't see straight I decided to come back otr.
I read about Magnum on here and decided to give the dreaded reefer a try.
I've been here since April and I can honestly say that this truly is an awesome outfit.
Magnum has done everything they told me they would. No questions asked. I'm between 2000 to 2500 miles per week, and my paychecks have been solid. On average since I've started I have been getting over 10,000 miles per month easily. The dispatchers are great about keeping you preloaded as long as you keep in contact with them. I'm usually planned out for the whole week and sometimes the weekend after 2 days.
If you are on the fence about this place I highly advise you to come on over.
Great equipment (579 Petes with APUs), haven't seen a junk trailer yet, plenty of miles, minimal equipment issues and a shop that actually fixes things if there is a problem, friendly dispatchers and a feeling that as a driver you matter.
I sound like a recruiter but so far this has been the case.
Another Magnum Ltd thread..

Hope I enjoy it as much as it sounds like you do! I've got a sister and her family that lives at Oak Island and several cousins that live there in Southport. Enjoy your home time!!!
War Wagon Thanks this. -
I think you will enjoy it here. Just remember that communication is the key. Keep your dispatchers aware of what's going on and you will keep rolling.

Been running on my own at Magnum since May and absolutely love it. Once you prove that you can manage your clock and run hard the miles start coming... Getting 11K per month and hopefully soon I will be in the performance pay (old guy returning to trucking after a 25 year gap) so things are going well.
You can do a lot worse than Magnum, especially for newbies. -
Well I'm a newbie and so far I've been impressed with everybody I've run across. We delivered this morning in Rocky Mount, NC and now we're in Concord, NC picking up a load running it to Wisconsin

Can anybody tell me how the trainers are compensated? And how long do you have to be with Magnum, before they will give you the opportunity to become a trainer?
