    CFI would be great to help me get this tuition paid off quick. But Stevens has inverters and apu’s Where as CFI only as inverters and a temperature idle shut off. It’s like less than 30 or more than 70 idle or something. Does anyone know of any other good starter companies that offer both apus and inverters with a decent tuition reimbursement and miles? I know I might be asking for a lot here with a starter company but I’d still like to weigh out all my options. Thank you! Finishing school in two weeks and hopefully testing in three (I’m on weekend classes)

    Side note - if said company doesn’t have apu’s I’d be just as happy if they just allowed me to idle.

    Don't get hung up on tuition reimbursement. It's just extra money. Another job with higher pay and no reimbursement could be just as good or better.

    well if I can find decent miles I’d be as happy. I really want to average no less than 2700 a week

    Did you rule out Freymiller?
    Vero Logistics in Margate has APU, inverter, refrigerator, but don't know about tuition reimbursement.

    I’m still considering Frey Miller as well China. I remember you suggested that as well. I’m just wanting to make sure I rule out all my options and you see to be the knowledge guru around here so
    I tagged you lol.i tried looking on their website and I see a lot of contradictions. Do you know if Millis hires new drivers?

    I think you have to attend Millis cdl school to be hired, unless you're already an experienced driver.
    Can't blame you for wanting an APU. With the technology available today, you shouldn't have to worry about idling.
    I think Freymiller has an old website up that's not up to date. The newest one I can find is www.drive4freymiller.com

    Yeah I’m just concerned with Frey Miller only offering 100/month tuition reimbursement and their lower pay. Idk if I’d get enough miles to still pay for tuition (and have it paid off early like I want. No longer than 18 months. 7 grand loan)
