Great Plains Transport - A company that cares about drivers... NO BS.

All the time or just for 30 minutes? ! Lol. Yeah, it can to get around some of the slower trucks. There's plenty of team freight out of the Carolinas the last time I was there from what dispatch told me.

Wish they would set them at 70-72 mph. I'll never make the 7.5 mph fuel bonus. I run at 65 always on cruise and progressive shift and the best I got is 7.39 avg. I'm not going to run at Prime speeds for 1/2 penny more. So the bonus is not much of a choice "to me". Cruise at 65 and get what I can get on fuel bonus, cause I'm not driving 60 mph. I've worked for a company that had the same bonus except to get 7.5 avg it was .02 and the trucks were set at 73 on the pedal and 65 on cruise. So u actually had to slow down to make the bonus or drive with ur foot on the pedal to get more miles but no bonus, and if you didn't make the miles driving faster to make up the .02 for driving slower u only screwed yourself.
Unless you have a Volvo. They have an advantage. the d13 with the I shift gets about 8.5 avg.if not more from what two of the drivers told me. I'll never get close to that in this truck.

 

Hoping I get layover pay for this weekend....

 

And hi back to both ya. And Good luck. Any questions don't hesitate to ask. Or just call Mike. He'll tell you how it is.

 

Of course you will. I always write it in the notes section on trippak and sometimes I call dispatch if it's iffy.
I think after 24 hours. At 36 hrs $50 and $50 every 12hrs after that till u get a dispatch. So as soon as you send in the empty macro the clock starts!

 

can't get enough drivers over there can you?

 

Syphilis as a matter of fact yes. I considered leaving but things have improved greatly the last month. So please go away. Recruit for the company somewhere else. If we're interested we'll come to y'alls page.

Try Swifts page. They're always looking for another job. Or Stevens, trans am, and crst.

 

Don't worry,?this is the first weekend I've sat since.... A few years ago? This was just something that fell through the cracks lol. One slow weekend out of several years isn't going to be enough to make me leave.

 

Lmaoo syphilis... He never gives up...

 

Forget it, Sisyphus, we're fine here. You could always try camping out by the prime yards if magnum is that hard-up for drivers....

 

Smh...rolmao!!
