    So far I'm extremely happy with prime, keeping me rolling with nice long loads and not a bunch of extra time on them. Nice truck and helpfull staff.

    Today was rough Took off last night at midnight with 5 hours togo. 2 hours later was falling asleep so I stopped and took a nap. Delivered around 8 this morning. Sat waiting for a load. With 2 hours left on my clock got one, ran like hell to get it and get parked. During that a rock flew up and took a nice chip and crack out of my windshield.

    Company side? Don't worry about it... it'll get replaced. As long as it is smaller than a quarter (ya know... 25-cents??) and doesn't have any spider-web cracks, it'll pass DOT inspection.

    RA doesn't have a lot of manpower on nights and especially weekends. IMO, the more you know about your machine, the better off you are.
