ask your questions about prime inc here

Are there good miles with prime? I use to drive for central refrigerated and getting 2700 to 3200 miles a wk. I got out of otr for 18 months and now work for S W I F T and lucky to get 2200. Most of my loads have been around 300 with multiple stops. I am thinking on going back to refrigerated loads and have my eye on prime. Are you guys on e logs?

 

yes Prime is on e-log

 

how long do you run with a trainer after you get your CDL

 

You run a minimum of 30,000 (40,000 actually, but you get a 10,000 mile credit for doin the simulator)

 

Trucking is a big turn over no matter what company you go with. I been with Prime 7 1/2 years and I have seen a lot of drivers come and go.

 

Wrong they guaranteed to 600 a week no matter if you make 1 mile or 5000 but you can't go home or that will stop.... But when you come back out you start all over again

 

It depends on you but no more than 30k if you get it all down backing, paper work, how to run the refer and ect....

 

Or until he kicks you off the truck.... hopefully he will pull the truck over for this. Lol

 

To prime drivers, i wanna know if i could take truck training at john tyler comm. coll. in va. and be hired by prime after i graduate from the full time course? I have not call
prime yet because i want to wait until i close my employment gap 1st. plus i want to here your opinions on it. Thanks.

 

Take the training at Prime. It will likely be better and its free if you stay on 1 year. Some people frown about being locked in for a year and opt to get their training elsewhere, I thought about doing that myself. But I looked at it this way. Most other good opportunities require one year of experience anyway, so I may as well take the free deal and after getting my one year in, I could go wherever else I wanted. Next month will be two years and I'm not going anywhere...
