melton 2014 update

get a throttle stick and set it to raise your RPM to about 7-800. thats what the cruise conrtol idle usually set it to...you should be able to idle your truck then.

 

you know you can always ask me if you have questions, right?

 

Pfft... I can't even get you to pick me up in Houston!








lol

 

You were supposed to tell me when you arrived. dumb dumb.....

 

Good Info from everyone. I am set to start classes next week and want to get into skateboards. Looking at Melton, Maverick, & TMC. Is it true Melton has cams watching the drivers now? I know I read either maverick or tmc has them now too. Seems a lil big brotherish but their equipment their liability. I got nothing to hide. though if my lady is with & they are still watching when your shut down they better make sure its not some old guy with a weak heart. lol

 

I forgot one other thing... does Melton really try and keep you to 8,000 miles a month or less?

 

Some have cameras, some don't.

the day they put one in my truck is the day I quit.

Some say that it's to reduce insurance costs, but the other day while looking for Melton's EID # to file taxes, I came across a form of Melton's claiming that they are self insured. Dont know how old the form is, or if they are even self insured currently but if that's the case, cameras won't reduce insurance cost.

 

As for miles, I consistently get 10,000+

 

TY Mrh.. How long have you been with them? if you dont mind saying whats your $/mile?

 

I was officially hired 4th of July last year. Started me at .42 with 1.5 years OTR and I'm still at .42

ive heard that recent grads start at .34 but don't know how true that is.
