Inverters

Me too, and I have an interview tomorrow morning for a local gig that's all full manuals. Heavy haul, too.

Yikes.

 

If you going to go out with a mentor... I suggest going with a manual trans. Get more practice. You already can drive an auto. Always a crap shoot what you gona get with swift. Depends on what' available or how long you want to wait.
When I left swift in 2015, they had cascade, kw, prostate, and Volvo. I never seen a peterbilt with a swift logo

 

Then again, the recruiter will say just about anything to get you into orientation. That is what he is paid to do.
You may want to speak with someone (like the person that will decide if you can test on an auto) at the terminal you will be going to, just to make sure.

 

I've seen a few at terminals but they may have been leased rigs. I don't know for sure.

 

If it' a swift company truck it will say swift on the doors.
If it' a lease... it will say lease to swift

 

Right. I've seen Petes at Sumner and WVC terminals, but never really paid attention to the decals. I think they must have been lease ops because there were so few.

 

At the jurupa terminal which I was out of the had to guys doing the drive test and both were manual trans.
Think the one In Denver was too.
Swift knows you gonna be a it rusty. That' why they do the drive test. Just don't hit anything.
When I went back to swift in 2012 I haven' driven in 1.5 years. Takes a it to get back into practice. That' what the mentor is for.
