I like mine but it is setup for dryvan which bugs me, since I like to still think of myself as a flatbeder and hope to get back into it. As far as shawn and dwayne go never had any problems with them, I had to explain myself once for an overspeed which was a joke. Some how I got an overspeed in downtown Houston Tx haha.

Kelly was my DM while their, and i ran Kmart and Sears dedicated,
how long have you been in the LP deal -
About 17 months so far, looking to get another truck (Not IEL) and drive it while my brother continues in the current one.
NWMAXI Thanks this. -
I have been in my deal for 19 months, and my DM, he used to be a planner there for 9 years. he knows what it is like, and watches out for his drivers. Again, I have talked to both Dewayne and Shawn, and never once a problem, in fact, I have been approved to be a Mentor. And like was said earlier, my speeding was comming down a hill. You have to make it and talk to them. Have a attitude, have a great time. I never have one. In fact, when trying to get home, I actually mentioned that in my 20 months with Swift, I have never gotten snarky, and this was one time that I was ready to become snarkey,

Does anyone know what kind of facilities the Sumner terminal has? Showers? Vending machines? Driver area to sit and wait?
-
All the above ... every Swift terminal has facilities some better than others ... Though Houston and Avenel lack showers.DocWatson Thanks this.
-
Excellent!
-
Minimal parking, plan acourdingly.DocWatson Thanks this.
-
yep here right now looks like all the trailers that normally sit in troutdale are here which make for even smaller amount of parking, bobtail land is packed as normal. -
Minimal parking for personal vehicles?
So I was planning on maybe taking my motorcycle out of storage and riding it to orientation once I catch the bus back from the Lewiston training back into Tacoma.
Do you guys think they would allow me to park my motorcycle somewhere at the terminal while I go out on the road with my mentor? Would it be safe there from theft do you think?
