Gator's Prime Experience

I've been reading this thread and starting to think PRIME was an option until I heard this. F that man. I'm out

 

From what the drivers say, theyre not that bad. Just have a smaller sleeper and engine in um.

 

Apparently there are flatbedders in lightweights too. Saw one pass me in Des Moines, IA this morning.

Now that Im looking, it wont be long before I snap a photo of one.

 

Not sure what's going on there but that's got 2suck figured it might be a Texas regional thing but I'm not sure.....wonder if storage space is an issue

 

I really didn't think I was going to like the smaller truck. But after being in it for awhile I have gotten used to it. I'm not saying that I wouldn't prefer the bigger sleeper but here in the NE it works out just fine.

 

Running all 48 with as much equipment I got, a cute truck isnt happening.

 

i agree i hope i can avoid a cute truck i got over 515k mi on this truck currently so i dont know how much longer they will keep it in the fleet whether at 600k or beyond...but it runs good though

 

Wanna know when your truck gets turned in? (company driver)

Call Success Leasing. Tell them you are thinking of switching to Lease after you turn in your current truck. Tell them you are looking to narrow down the time frame to prepare and make a decision.

It's not a exact date but I was notified the week of the date I was given.

 

Light wt's are not all that bad. I had the shop pull the passenger seat out of mine. I have plenty of space for storage. Have a space for a TV, but don't need it as I use my computer for movies. A dorm refrigerator and microwave will be going in where the Seat was as well as an additional cabinet for clothes storage. Only issue I have is power, it see's a hill coming and it turns chicken lol. they are underpowered, that said it could be because I have been running heavy loads.

 

Ya, but I need storage space for my gear too. No place to put the big box on one of those baby trucks.
