    Do they let you get a load home once you get your truck or do you have to stay out?

    Hope I get my verdict soon; good or bad. I'm off to System if the latter.

    They let you go home usually people stay out one week after because then you get a regular mileage pay check and your first bonus after you deliver your first load.

    Ya got it today it's almost in perfect shape just has some miles on it is all and it's a t660 as they are replacing them with 680s so the drivers that have been here a bit get the new trucks obviously but this is a 2014 kenworth with an apu so I can't complain.

    hey you live relatively close to me im in myrtle beach south Carolina

    I was wondering how you go about working for them being so far away, do you have to drive to the Mississippi terminal each time you go out? or do they have more localized stuff

    There's no terminal in Mississippi the closest one is Birmingham Alabama. But your not based out of a terminal all loads are dispatched centrally. They just find loads that are near where you live when you request home time.
