    Looking to talk to some of the drivers for all the inns and outs related to this company. I'm starting school on the 9th and would like to tips and tricks and whatever else.

    I used to work for them. It's a good company, but you will be driving in a 60 mph trucks, the far west you will go is Cheyenne, wy and denver, co. Don't do tire chains, all trucks are automatic, lots of waiting cause they mostly haul meat product i.e. Cargill and JBS. And they Hugh on fuel bonus and it's easy to get fuel bonus when your truck is govern at 60 mph

    also they mentioned 2800 miles, I'm sure that's not accurate but I'm not scared to do the miles hopefully I can tweak and learn to be able to use every bit of my 11 hours.

    That's sound about right with them but their main customer are Cargill and JBS so be prepared to do some sitting

    I think they have a LOT of trailers spotted at all their main meat packer points. But they'll see plenty of early AM grocery DC appointments. Seems like I remember someone saying they have driver facing cams but I'm not sure

    They don't have any amenities for their trucks which it's sucks when you do a lot of waiting

    that would make sense for the no pics or posting of amenities.
