any ideas on transam trucking?

They will make a hard push to lease a truck. DON'T. You will almost certainly lose your ###. They may even try to force you to lease like they did to me. If they do, leave.

IF you are lucky enough to get a company truck you will wait alot. Trans-Am does a ton of meat loads and these places don't seem to be in a huge hurry to load you. You will also, as a company driver, have runs taken away from you for a lease driver so that driver can make that truck payment. TA is always making sure lease guys make those payments. They seemingly stop caring about the driver once the payments are covered though.

 

From what I've heard they are on the top of drivers #### list. With all I've read and heard along with all automatic trucks. No thank you.

 

I have to admit, the auto-shift isn't bad. You can still select the gear with the push buttons and it is the same Eaton 10spd we all know. Just controlled by servos. It's not like an Allison automatic at all. The trannys were good even for mountains plus they shift fast.
