    I'd recommend that you call recruiting. They aren't like most trucking companies. They'll tell you the truth straight up. They'll tell you which division is the best fit for where you live and, if you still want to do tanks they'll let you know if they can make it work. My recruiter was Andy and he was Awesome and 100% honest about everything. No surprises when I got to orientation. Any other questions you may have I'll try to answer them.

    Thanks.

    been there almost 18 months and take home after all fuel is out and all deductions .91-.95 per mile,if your running costs are $1.41 a mile you need to redo the math or something is def wrong somewhere,there is no meat on the bone after that

    Yes sir. I'm delivering in Texas on Monday because I'm low on hours. I'm going to try and see if I can deliver tomorrow.
    I was lazy and parked over here because I had a bunch of laundry to do.

    That's only about 30 miles from my house. I'm going to text my Manuel tomorrow and let him know I'm going home this coming up weekend. He's an awesome fleet manager.

    I'm staying out 3 weeks at a time. That 1 month down and 8,000+ repairs has me in a hole that I'm trying to dig out of. But, I'm still very happy here and the money is definitely here.
     
    trucker91 Thanks this.

    I walked over to your truck this morning since your hood was up and knocked on your truck but I guess I had just missed you. I saw your truck leaving about 15 minutes later while I was dropping off my trip sheets in the office.
