JCT

Just talked to a rec. today(2-2-09) Stick and she said they were hiring in NC. Im in wnc and she emailed me some things i asked about. Might wanna give them a call again and make sure. Later

 

Plus with JCT, the truck is yours... As where with the others, you return the truck and start over again. I know Prime and JCT have a walk away lease but I'm not sure about the others you mentioned. DRIVE SAFE

 

I know with Prime you buy the truck outright or do another lease. I like JCT because you get to keep it and get a choice of working with them as an o/o or going your separate ways. Also, I see lots of JCT trucks on I-95 in central FL. Are your customers in FL or do you only deliver to FL?

 

Just curious how it could be done legally? I looked up the farthest west city in NJ on I-80 I could find (Polkville) (figured I-80 would be the shortest to look at since it goes straight across country) to the fartest east city in CA on I-80 (Truckee). According to Mapquest the route is 2,659 miles and would take 39.5 hours to drive. Assuming this drier could drive 75 mph for 11 hours on Friday, Saturday and Sunday that woul be 2,475 miles driven leaving about 200 to go on Monday. Yes those 200 miles could be done before noon on Monday, but it isunrealistic to think the driver drove 75 all the way as it would be illegal in several states for him to drive that fast, Illinois for example. Just curious.

 

The numbers you used and the number of days you used would be crazy to run now days. DOT (especialy in CA) arent stupid, they would scrutinize that log book if you left New Jersey on Friday and were in CA Monday morning driving solo.
I like to avg 600 miles a day, and even that is a long enough day.
DRIVE SAFE

 

Can't make it from NJ on friday to cali buy monday am with JCT as a solo.Seeing that you must match every fuel stop within 15 min. and buy company policy not beeing able to log faster than 64 mph in any state with a speed limit above 70 mph and have to log 5 mph lower than the speed limit in all the states with speeds lower than 70.

 

You are assuming his logbook shows him starting his trip on Monday, ah, those were the good ol' days.

Exactly my point, knighton. I was questioning LMB's statement that the previously mentioned solo trip from NJ to CA thn headed for FL could be done legally. I know there is no way it can be done. I was wanting LMB to explain how it could be.
