    The driving 55 mph all the time would drive me nuts.
    Check out the prime threads. They'll give you a better idea of what's up there.

    I've read tons of prime thread. Lots of positive and negatives. Though the positives do outweigh the negatives. I'm really looking for more info on eastern Freightways . Haven't read anything that tips the scale for me.

    After hearing that your 45 with a wife and kids I say go with EF. Though I've never heard of them If they can get you home on 2 days/wk. as new guy that's hard to come by. I'm with prime were a good company and I like it here but with us you will be out 3-4 weeks at a time. Good luck.
     
    darthanubis and pete1 Thank this.

    The 40k is total as a team, so it's really more like 6 weeks give or take. Mostly cross country stuff so they rack up pretty quick.

    Good luck whatever you choose. Prime is good to us but hard to beat hometime, especially if the pay Is close.

    40k is the training requirement that your referring to? I was commenting that we are required to be out 3-4 wks once out of training.
