    funny thing, I was actually given two different figures from two different recruiters regarding the pay during orientation and training. unfortunately I forgot to write down what I was told the second time.

    Do you pull a 48-53ft spread axle flatbed trailer on your first initial road test during orientation? I'm kind of sweating this because all we pulled around at school were 28ft dry vans.

    It’s just a 45-48 ft flatbed. No biggie. They are a good company. Just didn’t like them installing cameras and going to all autos. I heard they got rid of their school. Not sure if it’s true or not

    I am considering going to systems transport I have been looking though this thread and i have not seen this question asked. But I live in central Oregon and the closest terminal is in Spokane Washington so do they allow you to take truck home on home time or do you have to park at the terminal.Which if you have to park at the terminal I am not sure how I would be able to get home for home time. I also asked about the PNW region route but i was told by system transport I would be put on the OTR fleet even though i live in Oregon.

    thanks

    I’ve seen some guys that live in like Kentucky be able to take the truck home. I had to park at the French camp terminal and I lived up in Redding.
