Sweet, will def get started on that. How picky are the background checks for hazmat and twic? I dont have anything major and no MVR in years. do have a felony charge that was BS and got dismissed totally in the end.

when you go there they will give you an application form, in there are some felonies they don't want you to have other then that pay and wait for it when they call usually two weeks

Thank you very much Richter. very helpful. I take it you work there? How long? Takes care of a lot of my questions. I think this is def who I want to work for. The horror stories don't scare me, Iam not afraid of work or doing it the way the boss wants. I like having to prove myself. been doing it my whole life. Trying being a foreman in sheetmetal at 22, always gotta prove yourself, so that's all gravy. just keep my nose clean, learn all I can and work my *ss off.
Do have two new questions though about the transmissions/trucks... Do the trucks have good pulling power on the hills/mountains? How are those 9 speeds on the 579's? Seems like your tradeing power range for less shifting..
One question about the percent pay.. I have a really good feel for the kind of miles decent drivers get at Maverick from posts on here in the Maverick section. What kind of money do decent (save, efficient, on time) drivers make with TMC as a weekly average?
I wont mind a 379 in good shape. I like the look of them better. -
they run paper logs or elogs?

Tmc runs elogs. And percentage aint bad if the freight pays, but it all boils down your financial situation at home. You wont get rich there but you can make a decent living. Hell, you cant really grt rich drivin a truck anywhere. But i liked their percentage pay. Id work towards gettin on deere and youd be on mileage there. Always felt like you got paid for what you did... unless you come across some bank payin freight... or even boats, though your home time is not as often... youre doin the right thing boss, research to find you a good home, youll be alright either way. Tmc got some good folk over there and they take care of their equipment...
