    What terminal were you out of? First I’ve heard of a “New” truck having a camera.

    Weekly, with expense checks printed out a few times a week. Speaking in regards to my experience out of the NC terminal. Other terminals might do things differently, don’t know.

    Ez pass including sunpass, whatever Texas and Kansas use, pre-pass including NC pass (or maybe NC finally joined prepass not sure)

    I was out of Tupelo. But I picked the truck up in Conover. And as far as I know the truck is still in Tupelo. I do know they got 7 2019 trucks in Tupelo, not sure if they have cameras or not. I haven’t seen on up close, just down the road.

    One other thing some drivers don’t like when they start at Zenith. You will take a training trip with a trainer. No matter how long you have been driving. Didn’t bother me trainer was real cool. But almost everyone I talked to fussed about having to do it. Just FYI for anyone looking to go there.

    Still here.

    Based off things I’ve heard that sounds about right but I don’t want to tell you wrong. Every terminal pays a little different and being out of the NC terminal were the “lowest” paid. I’ll PM you a little more in-depth about the pay shortly.

    As long as you’re prepared to work hard helping unload furniture and can work quickly during the day to deliver as many stops as possible you’ll do fine.

    Zenith announced a new pay increase as well as a change to simplify the pay scale. Drivers start at .50cpm now and after 6 months earn .53 for ALL miles. All stops are now $20. This is out of the Conover NC terminal and I assume other terminals may be on a different pay scale as they traditionally have been.
