Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

So am I...

 

Hey guys I'm starting school Dec.16th to get my CDL class A I used to drive otr but in a class b and drove team most the time and was wondering on there team operations do they run you like a team and do they pair you with someone in your area or do you have to have someone when you get hired? I understand i'll be with a trainer for a while do you know around how much a student will bring home starting out?
Thanks for any info and be safe

 

You should ask john to switch u for his cascadia cheated he loves those kws lol

 

Heared not cheated #### auto correct

 

In some aspects they are smaller than the 780 but the real mattress goes a long way. I love my 780 because its roomy and drives like a dream but I can honestly say I wont miss the weak low beams at all. The KW's should be a great improvement in that area at least!

 

Those are some good miles how long are you with a trainer roughly and you get paid bi-wkly. ? do they require hazmat and is it 1 day off for every 7 out?
Thanks for the Info Johnboy I have heard a lot of good things about them

 

.
I don't understand why would they put teams in kw and not 780. The 780 has a lot more room than a kw. What gives.

 

I'd say it all depends on what kind of deal they get with each manufacturer. Can someone who works there clarify on whether I'm close to being right???

i only drive on weekends (sat and sun) until I join the green machine in jan. but the company I drive for has only teams for over the road and 95% are in 780 and all love them and the few that are not in them can't wait to get in them. In case your wondering the other 5% are in cascadias.
