Jim Palmer/ Wil Trans questions

I live in Connecticut

Home time really isn't an issue for me. No wife, no kids....no reason to be home! lol

 

Lets hear from some more Jim Palmer guys.

 

Well technically you won't hear from Jim palmer guys since they are owned and operated by Wil Trans ,, for some reason they chose to leave the Jim palmer name on the trucks prob to keep a few customers

 

Yeah, I knew that and confirmed through the recruiter that they are not owned by Prime just pull some freight for them and that they still are averaging 1500 mile loads which I like. West Coast to Ohio/Kentucky then down to Texas back to West Coast. Forgot to ask if they run E-Logs or Paper. I never ran e-logs so we will see. Also they run only 200 Palmer Tractors. All drivers are .40 cpm but a .05 cpm fuel bonus.

 

Electronic logs and up to .05 bonus.

 

How does that bonus work? All or nothing?

 

No it starts at a penny and increases to a nickel. Depends upon your mpg.

 

Thank very much for info very much appreciated.

 

Saw on another post that if you go through JPT training program they want you to downgrade your CDL to a regular license to re-upgrade it to a Class A in Montana? Is this true? I don't want to drop my passenger endorsement, kinda a ##### to get it now.

 

Negative, i am in their end of September Class and coming from Alaska. They know and made them double check 3 times. Very nice lady named Alex
