    No they are not. They say they are. My last team run I did was Woodland Washington to McDonough Georgia....6 days to do it and no swaps. Unreal

    Why does everything with May have to be so effin tight? They say they plan at 50 mph which is BS granted I never been late and that's only cause I push it. But now I can't do that anymore found out I have Zonar on my truck and have been getting calls from safety about my speeds in CA and OR didn't think 57 mph was bad but they sure do.

    He said 312 events of above 55 mph thru Oregon and that I need to show it down cause zonar says I'm going 57 mph and OR and CA are only 55.

    What is the latest on the APUs at May? Also if it is still a NO. What is the idle policy winter and summer? Please only answer if you work for May.

    May does not have APUs, nor will have them in the near future. Not in their business model.

    45% in the summer months and 10% in the winter. Any idle time not credited over your percentage, will be taken out of your check.

    Thank you for the response. I appreciate you taking time to answer my question. I should clarify. (I didnt think I would need to) I searched APU and got about 25 pages. Within that there were two threads in May trucking. YOU are correct Blue dude, beat to death for sure. So why would I ask? Well, I happened to talk with a student (son of our neighbor) that is attending at driving school in Oregon. In our conversation he said "A guy from May came to the school and was asked about APUs said. Newer west coast trucks will have them". Him talking, not me. SO since from what I read on this forum, (NEVER trust a recruiter, they are salesmen) I thought why not ask some guys that actually drive for May? I thought the thread said, " Ask a May trainer" That being said, I will attempt to improve my computer skills, and way of thinking.
