    No worries. Never hurts to ask. I might send him a PM (private message) to see if they even asked for it, as I am curious myself.

    Edit: Welp, I can't do that yet, as I do not have enough post to meet the requirements to send a PM. Maybe he will revisit this thread.

    You can average 2500 miles per week flatbed not counting home time. I wouldn’t recommend going flatbed with Prime if you can help it though.

    Hi. I am a prospective trucker looking at getting my CDL through Prime. I am a very particular sleeper - any humidity and I have a tough time. Are Primes trucks equipped with APUs to allow for air conditioning through the night? Any info is appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Nate

    Everyone is spoiled these days. If they only knew what real trucking was like back in the days.

    Well I would never consider becoming a truck driver if I couldn't sleep comfortably. I know it didn't used to be that way. I don't mind being comfortable!

    I'm glad I didn't end up going with Prime and their "lightweight" trucks..As an OTR driver now I can't imagine having that little space...I have a regular sized truck and it's tight in here with all my stuff....Anyone looking to get into trucking I'd say to stay away from those underpowered lightweights...No bueno !
