    I have a Class A with no T/T experience or school. The recruiter told me on the phone Friday that I would come in on Thursday instead of Sunday or Monday since I wouldnt need to get the CDL and thats what those first few days are geared towards. The remainder would be the same.

    Unfortunately I let a guy talk me into taking the Class A written test on my own then I rented one of those trucks to take my driving test. This screwed me with Prime but apparently the others dont have an issue with it.

    I have been driving a Kenworth T-300 flatbed wrecker for the past year. I dont have T/T experience, school or OTR.

    Maybe he went back to his airline job. Or it could be that FFE is not what he thought it would be.

    King; There was nothing degrading or derogatory towards FFE in my post. If you will read the previous posts you will see the question that was asked. My response was directed towards that question. Why are you so defensive? I too would like to hear from Playmaker.

    Sorry I haven't updated lately been rollin. I am on trainer truck but trainer let's me run the truck solo on solo loads since I had experience. My personnel miles for the 1st week was 2935. The only dis-like is the 63 MPH trucks. But each day I run between 460 and 560 miles a day, so you can still get miles as long as you run steady. Trainer has been here for 8 years and said he won't drive for anybody else. My impression over all has been like when I started this thread, Great Company your not just a number and they treat you fair. PeopleNet system is not bad at all. Has built in GPS and yes it has Elogs but it takes all the guess out of it. More to come next week. Keep the Dirty side down, be safe.
