So I got back to Murray, Ky and delivered the load I picked up in Coopersville, Mi and I was out of hours for the day. It was a drop and hook I dropped my full tank of cream and hooked to an empty and took my 10 hour break right there. I also took my break at the place in Coopersville, Mi. That's fine with me my truck has a built in fridge and I stocked it. All of the company trucks have them.
I have consistently been running 550 miles a day. Anyway after delivering in Murray, Ky and taking my 10 hour break I deadheaded 370 miles to Fair Oaks Indiana to pick up a load going 400 miles to Nashville. No waiting at the dairy. It took about an hour to load.
I also have a pre plan that picks up 30 miles from Nashville and delivers 150 miles back in Murray Ky tomorrow also.
I will be honest, at this point I really like it. That could change but once again so far so good.hal380, Orange713 and realsupatrucka Thank this. -
They not running those 386 petes any more
-
I've seen some IRT Petes and Intl Prostars. I think they have a mixed fleet and buy whats cheapest at given times like everyone else.
-
Yea they have a bunch of brand new petes and the internationals and a few freightliners like mine. I did see a few brand new KWs there too.
I like this freightliner I am very happy with it.hal380 and The Challenger Thank this. -

hal380 Thanks this. -
I have hazmat but they dont require it anymore.
-
O okay. ..I think it was because of tequila or something like that

PM or leave meesage here thks
hal380 Thanks this. -
Pay is .37 a mile empty and loaded.
I would assume if you can you being running a few border crossings into Canada and there is extra pay for that. They have a ton of freight in the northeast from what I understand. No load or unload pay like chemicals but the driver doesn't touch a thing.
Yeah they will fly you down and I am sure fly you home is you resign but take it out of your last check. I would imagine they would.hal380 Thanks this.
