    He was playing the Prime Recruiter role, complete with sunshine injection in the arse. He did this to prepare you for Prime. You’re supposed to ignore any talk about leasing.

    You should thank him.

    Don't quit.
    Don't lease.
    Don't accept a lightweight tractor; take a full size tractor. The difference is living in a closet or living in a one bedroom apartment. It's not worth a few extra pennies per mile to live in cramped conditions.

    Stay away from CR England. They shoot Prime drivers.
    Pride ain’t too nice either. Just don’t let them know you’re with Prime.
    Oh... and... watch out for the Mormon girls. They’ll give their sweet all to make you into a Mormon.

    China gave you some good advice! For me Primes slow trucks would be a deal breaker for me. Ever get behind one on a two lane and you will feel the agrivation trying to get around one. Reminds me of Schneider’s trucks back in the day!
     
    Joetro, TripleSix and Chinatown Thank this.

    If you go to work for Prime, get used to driving slow.
