    That's an awesome rig..I checked their site and says I need flatbed experience which I dont have, only four years of reefer and dry van. Plus my wife and little dog go with me so not sure if they allow that..if they do though looks like they are a great company. Sounds like you got it going on there.

    They do have a rider program
    Not sure what the pet thing is if you’re a company driver?

    I would call if interested as I’m not sure that the flatbed experience is mandated or if it’s a case by case?
    I do know they go over how to secure during orientation

    From what I have heard. They hire about 3 out of every 100 applicants but I’m sure a lot of those are weeded out on the application process when their email is something way off base like baby hater 301 at whatever email
    That sort of stuff

    Loved that paint job. Did you custom ordered it? Would you mind to tell the truck specs?

    I ordered the truck in Legendary Black paint and has the gold done by a friend
    Do you want all the specs or basic?

    I did a 250” wheelbase with air ride car hauler front axle
    MX 13 motor
    Aluminum 5th
    Electrical outlets in sleeper
    Platinum interior and attic pkg
    I went with the auto as I think it shaved some weight and really the only time I shifted my other trucks was in heavy traffic which sucked and it seems to pull just fine

    let me know if you want any other specs

    These were my last two trucks

    MX 13 motor with automatic transmission and 2:85 rears

    I used the same specs Long Haul orders and just made a few personal changes

    I figured they were at this longer tha. Me and should have a pretty good spec’d truck

    Wasn’t sure about the automatic but after driving it I don’t think I’d ever go back to a manual unless I get a 389 with a bigger motor
