Need a little insight

Rushing into a decision is not a wise move in this industry. Your future success may be decided by working at the right company, rather than some random company. I strongly suggest you act as if you are picking what & where you will be working for the next year, all day, everyday, rather than like one company is the same as most other companies. A company that is unsuited to you will make leaving early seem like a smart thing, but leaving early will make you seem less hire-able at the better companies and restrict you to mediocre or worse companies that take guys with a few months experience. Or they may put you in situations where you get other tickets and now it looks like you are dangerous or unreliable for all but the worst companies.

 

Prime gives the driver the choice of a higher pay-rate driving a lightweight ECO truck or a few CPM less and driving a normal truck. I was think the difference is something like 42 cpm versus 38 cpm.

The OP should go watch the YouTube videos of Prime Tanker driver John Ogren. He has tons of info on the company and the job at Prime. He's Dedicated Tanker.

 

Maybe USA limit newbies to 55 mph trucks, I NEVER see USA where I drive going 55 mph. They are nearly the same speed as my 65 mph truck. Granted, I don't see them everywhere like I used to see them 5-10 years ago. Maybe I'm not seeing a random sample of trucks.

 

USA trucks are at 65mph
