Checking in after 3 months and 2 weeks down at PGT. Still enjoying it. Being local, I don't know how OTR is first hand, but everyone I talk to is...
That's awesome that your new extended time out is working for you. Happy for you buddy. I finished testing out today. Got my truck and trailer....
Because we are no longer with roehl? And to show that mileage is a bull crap payment method for flatbed
A guy I went to orientation with told me his second day with his trainer they got an od load that paid approx. $6600 to the truck. He was on...
Week 2 done, first week with trainers. Drove on my route for 2 days. Still easy. Had one day running coils from Pittsburgh out to Stuebenville,...
It's restricted.
Well.. Finished orientation and went out with a trainer on my route. It is so simple I might as well be pulling a van. Undo 4 chains, get loaded,...
I think my commute is going to me less than that. From what I've heard, I can park the truck at one of the cons that is a short walk away....
Very good tips viking, especially that last one. I generally practice that on every load. Pull your tarps and all your straps right away, then...

For school, training, or on your own? For school, you have your own room, microwave and fridge. I brought enough food to last me the whole...
I told my fm the exact same thing. Any time I spend sitting for an extended period of time, I spend that time looking for a new job. Nothing...
You can look at the flatbed division info thread for my latest insight about the goings on in this division, from myself and others. Personally,...
I do still owe roehl. We will find out what the terms for paying it back will be shortly. I was very happy with the school, but apparently it's...
What usually happens is I am given a load on Friday or Thursday with only 300-600 miles on it (the one I got Thursday was a 1000 milers) and it...
