Inverters, APUs, Fridges in May Trucks

search button is your friend, as is the may site, but...
Yes, wired inverters.
They have a great one thru the company for $225 installed ($25/wk payroll dedeuction)
2000W true trucking industry inverter. I have had my fridge, microwave, and Foreman Grill running at once with no issues (that should answer the other questions lol)
Yes riders (18+ anytime, 13+ during school breaks)
NO PETS

 

In order:
LOVE IT!
who knows what model lol
Yes, E-LOGS
61mph
I get all the miles I could ever want, but that is hotly debated on here
Like all companies, CRAP
Call Jennifer in P-Cola, she's the $hitt!
Mostly Petes, Some ProStars, and Cascadias
I'm getting rid of my 2009 387 for a 2012 587 today...
~1000 drivers
3-4 weeks (or more depends on your skills/understanding)

PM me if you want to talk more in depth...

 

I have a tv, blu-ray, and PS3 in my truck plus the laptop occasionally plugged in.

 

Justawheel he gets the miles out of Pcola, he is the only one I know getting great miles. My trainer does not post but averages same as me. He called me today told me he has a 750 mile run delivers Monday afternoon in Syracuse. It's not the terminal its the planning.

 

I know of 4 other May drivers from P-Cola getting 2700+ ea wk
I just just turned in my truck for a new 587. In 54 weeks, I put 138k on it. (268k at issue, 406k at turn in)
That's 2555/wk assuming I never took off. There were at least three breaks of 7 days each, and then another five breaks of 4-6 days each. so that's at least 6 weeks of break time. ~ Average of 2875 driven per on-duty week.

 

Justawheelholder, the reality is that your experience at May is the exception, not the rule. The guys that are struggling and are sharing their frustrations are not benefitting from your consistent posting of your numbers, new truck truck, etc. I can assure you it its more like pushing a persons head down under the water that is drowning. Just my opinion, of course.

Now, I know for a fact that May recently implemented a pilot program with 10 new drivers that guarantees a fixed rate of pay for the six mos. The reason is because the mileage average for newer drivers tends to be lower at first and May realizes that drivers get discouraged because of it and quit within the first 3 to 6 mos because of it. So, that pilot program itself gives credence to some of the frustrations expressed by platinum and others here regarding their experience with lack of sufficient miles.

 

I never once said my experience was the standard...except for me lol
Seriously, I only post to show it's not some horrible, bottom feeder company. But, like I said, I know of at least 4 drivers, whom I talk to on a regular basis, that are getting miles similar to mine.
