Glass Unit Training

I started this thread when I entered glass training. I never intended it to go on forever but it grew legs and I had a lot of fun with it. A few months ago I left the glass division and went over to flatbed. Since I no longer haul glass I've stopped posting here. There were a few other glass hauls posting here for a while but I think they have all moved on as well.

 

- Satelite radio, no problem the in-dash radios have an audio jack on the front so you can imput sat or ipod
- Frig, you can buy one made to fit the opening in the truck, it will run on 110 or 12v and I think the go for about $450. Most people get a 110 model from a big box store and it works fine and saves you a few hundred.
- Micro, no problem
- TV, the trucks have an antenna, you may also want to find a TV that has a built in DVD player. There are many internet sites that have these. Stay away from the truck stop electronics as you will pay way too much.
- CB, the trucks are pre wired for the cb and you can install it yourself.

 

No, mainly I was just tired of being out 2 weeks at a time. Flatbed gets you home most weekends.

 

Good luck!

 

I have no idea what they have going on in San Antonio. Dedicated runs out of the falls and Corsicana. They hire regular glass drivers throughout TX.

Hauling glass is not much different then hauling anything else, safety first. It's rare for it to break but it happens.

As for pay I think they start out at .47 and in 6 months go to .49 that's for company drivers. Maverick has a IC program but I know nothing about it.
