Round two with Builders Transportation Company

My time here at maverick is finally up. I have given them my 100% and they gave me experience. But know its time to make money. The past few months I haven't been getting any miles. Had a talk with the F.M many times saying these 1700 mile weeks ant going to cut it. Not his fault just how things are I guess. I going to miss it there but I need to get experience driving a manual truck instead of this auto. In my opinion Mav automatic trucks are dangerous to so degree. They have NO power starting off and slow to get going and rpm's want go over 15. But besides that very nice equipment .


So now I'm headed to btc to try percentage pay. Starting off at 27% or if I don't like it I can move back to mileage making 44 cpm which is still a raise from what I'm making now( only 3 cents more) not to much of a big deal. Also I'm excited and driving a 10 speed, finally I can be called a gear jammer ...moving up in life. But one of my biggest things is going to a smaller company I get tired of call and giving my name and truck number. I was to call and they know my voice, or at least name lol. I like the look of the new Mack trucks they seem pretty nice and I was told they had some power so well see. I'm headed to Memphis August 5 so wish me luck.

 

I agree it is a lot stressful learning how to drive a auto. I'm just making my next step to being a real truck driver. Lol how do you like driving a Mack truck?

 

Do we have a referral bonus i was going to give them your name. by any chance will they well us float the gears during our road test or will we have to double clutch?
