    All kenworth t 700s for most part which are in amazing shape and not one truck is older than 2009. We have 290 company trucks and 1200 trailers. We run I 10, 20, 30, 40 and 65 most of the time. Drivers with 1 year exp 34cpm 2 yr exp 35cpm 3 and up no less than 36cpm I know some in 5-8 yr make almost 40cpm. Dht hires mostly from tn nc ga sc va mo. Teams split 40cpm 20 each for all miles driven and you get really great monthly and quarterly bonuses for no accidents or speeding tickets. I just signed on with them and I enjoy it really well. They treat there people really good and they have very minimal openings. Best wishes be safe driver hope my info helped:)

    Our company trucks are governed at 67 mph. Hometime in is every 7 days out you get 38 hours off but you can take two days especially if your coming out time is at night or early in morning. I stay out 3 weeks and they give me 5 full days off if i want them. The closer you live to terminal you get home alot overnight also cuz we pick up and drop trailers at terminals alot and you get through a terminal once a week easy hope that answers questions there a first class company with great people and great equipment. Your terminal would be lebanon missouri and if you are within 50 miles and waiting on load till next day or after ten hr break or a restart they let u park truck and stay at home.QUOTE=Dark_Majesty_06;3258877]Whats the hometime if you live in missouri?

    Were on paper logs until they make us all go electronic. We bypass a lot of scale houses too because we have a 80percent safety rating in the 200 to 500 truck company and we do not run any northeast the farthest north we go is missouri indiana and ohio we are a texas california southeast southwest carrier 90 percent of time

    Hey Highwayprisoner, thanks for all the info. I did call them today and talked to very nice gentleman (recruiter). Where is their terminal in TN? Is that in Mountain City? I tried to find on Google map but couldn't.

    I did tell the gentleman (recruiter) that their HOS violation score is kinda high.... it's 56.8.. He said that 30% of the fleet is on e-log and by the end of the year everybody in the company will be using it.
    Are all their trucks 10 speed? Do they all have double bunks? Is it really 99% no touch freight? He said average length is 1400 - 1500 miles... Really??
    I forgot to ask him... do their trucks have APU? Do they pay any extra for HM loads? Do drivers have to slip seat when they take one week off? Do they give enough time between pick up and deliver schedules? No payroll issues? Do they offer good roadside breakdown assistance? Tell me more about this company and its operation please.

    The pay listed isn't true. As a Danny Herman driver you will not make that much. I
