Current Drivers - USA Truck

USA has been fine for me. Miles are up and I have a good fm who talks to me more on the phone and via email more than the QC. I like my 9400 with 482k. I was offered a Prostar a month ago but declined. I want to see this truck to its final day at USA. It was poorly treated until I got it. This place is what you make it. Isn't that any other place?

The naysayers on here are usually one of what I call the three "L's":
Late....Lazy......Liars......which leads to the ultimate "L" LET GO!

Be safe.......

harry, do they get you home every 2 weeks, your from ohio, here in pittsburgh,pa. do they run RT-70 alot or RT-80, how do they run you east of the big creek i take it

 

also, what would you say the average miles per trip is over a 4 week period, 400 to 600 miles on average per trip, or alot more, there web site shows theres alot of million miler drivers there, so turn over rate must be low which is a good thing, also see owner-op pay at .91 on all dispatch miles and QComm 5 bucks a week rental fee, better than most companys, thanks

 

Received a nice call from a higher up at USA to follow up on my resignation. I'll just say that he thanked me for my honest feedback and told me I was welcome to return if I chose.

They also gave me a very nice recommendation to my new employer.

 

Mileage varies Dave....My FM is good to me, but I am learning that's case specific. I run every minute I can. Consequently I get good miles. Mileage is better determined after an extended period, not just a few weeks at a time.

You choose your own route when traveling. I 70/76 suck right now in your area due to construction .....lol.

If it helps, I have ran over 3200 per week this tour, and im starting the 4th week of 5.

 

Apparently your not an "L". Good luck to you.

 

It's slow moving because...

1. They are busy grilling! It's summer time. (If you can keep the grill lit during a tornado!)
2. They are waiting for you to use the search button so they don't have to type in the same advice to newbies day after day after day after day! LOL

 

question, drove from 1992 to 2004, how many weeks would i be with a trainer 4 to 6 weeks, seems to be the norm when getting back, how aften do yens go to jersey and new york like the bronx and queens, like to stay away from that hole north east area but you now all companys go there, just thought i ask maybe i'll get lucky and yens would say NO we don't go there

 

If you have experience and just took a break, you will probably go out for 2 weeks max. As long as you don't suck at driving. As far as NYCity, I haven't been there but we do have loads in and out of there. If you go to the city they pay you an extra $100. I'm in ME now and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Hope to get moving soon so I can be west of the city before 17:00.
