    If you make a living wage by the hr you don't need to speed.

    I know. Do you think they changed pay scales in the interest of their drivers? We both know what makes that outfit tick.

    That is an awesome read. If you don't mind me asking how many miles do you do a week? I am going with May Trucking next week and not sure whether to start with 11 western or go the whole 48. Is your 48 state truck an automatic or stick? and what are May's terminals like out doing the 48?

    btw I love St. Paul..cool little place.

    you really want to drive for a company with trucks set at 61mph,,at least 65 so you are not a traffic hazard,,May is a joke

    May trucks all have 13 speeds or at least all did when I was there. Not many terminals out there really, you'd spend much more time at truck stops. My trainer was 48 state, we were out 2 weeks and never hit a May terminal besides Brooks.
