    That’s way better than the plans the driver here in Michigan told me about.

    HEG took over alot of Dupont work from sentinel and has entered a few different areas. Dupont is there largest customer but they have other acts. The pay depends on what yard you are out of. And how long you stay out on the road. I hear John B. Is abt to take over Rick W. Position. I hope it goes well cause that guy is a plus piece of work.

    Well I've been going back and forth talking to the hiring manager, and it seems $70,000 is the least amount drivers are making there. Which is a great sign.

    I was given a typical out and back route pay sheet and working 23 hours. The route paid $650. I think I just have the nervousness of switching jobs then it not being as good as advertised.

    Newer trucks have everything as well as the older ones. Newer trucks which is what is being updated across the board have the pull out drawer refrigerators in them. All trucks have apu's. Mine can run a 700 watt microwave. We have ac/heat without having to idle the truck. Storage is definitely better in the new trucks. Nice closet and the trucks unfortunately are governed at 65.

    I'll make 80k or so and not really try. I don't tell them I wanna run hard cause I honestly don't anymore if that helps. I average 2 nights out a week usually. Sometimes 3 but that's on a busy week. Tell them how you like to run and they do their best to accommodate. Sometimes you gotta run what's on the table cause that's what's there and has to be covered.

    Yes. It's a good job for Buffalo. It's a learning curve if you've never done tanker before but nothing that anyone can't learn. You just gotta pay attention to what your doing and just take the few seconds to double check.
