    Hello, doing my research on carriers that offer CDL training. Haven’t found anyone with better training pay. $700 a week, in the TNT phase. Is there anyone out there that can beat this?!?! Prime has the best starting cpm and pay.
    And anyone found anything better?:)

    @Chinatown can help with what you looking for. If I may ask whats wrong with prime training pay. Is it not appealing?

    No. Just another one thinking they should get $1200 a week out the gate. $700 a week isn't great money but it'll keep you eating while you pay your dues for a year.

    No, I think prime is the best! It’s one of my top three choices. Just looking to see if there’s anything better. ;)Thanks

    Thanks for your input. No, I’m just doing my due diligence, and looking for the best opportunity available to start. I understand nothing is perfect and no company is really better than any other. It’s a matter of the drivers choice.

    Jim Palmer Trucking has about the same pay structure as Prime. Don't know the details though.
