My Experience with Maverick (so far)!

If you need real excitement try 40 with a heavy load at 4am with heavy fog. Now that's truckin' LOL

 

I get the excitement of climbing up and out of the Butler Valley each and every week hauling 3-5 coils from AK ButlerWorks. State RT 8 kills mpg.
Plus all of the trips in and out of Pittsburgh. Can't recall being on 65 but have been on 40 before.

But I digress, this is a forum for Orientation and Training period- because the other one Jim put up is old LOL.

Just Kiddin around, nc-rider! Ha!

 

oops, the 65 and 40 I was talking about is actually in MD. It is at the bottom western side of PA. That part of 40 going into PA is, I think 9% grade and you stop @ the top to check brakes. The speed limit for trucks is 10 mph with curvy road signs for about 3 miles and don't forget all the signs that says watch for MD wildlife and a picture of deer and bear on it.

Sorry for the hijacking. Continue with the posts NC-rider.

 

Yeah- been there BTW. I know what you are talking about now. Carry on...

 

Jim's thread is one of the largest and best threads on the entire site! I would say that all of the Maverick threads on here is actually a better recruiting tool than the actual recruiting dept HA! Keep posting all of your experiences, trust me, people are reading the threads. We have an excellent reputation, and our drivers are great.

 

Scary....yep i have a few of them. dog bite on right arm just below elbow. Railroad track looking one from sternum to below belt line, left side of groin area, (both from cancer), and stab wound inner thigh right leg......OOOOPS. I thought you typed scarry. lol. I think more students have scared (not scarred) me than vice versa sir.

 

Another new drivers experience is always welcome and offers others a fresh perspective on what they've experienced at Maverick. Thank You and keep up the posts.

Who's your instructor?name and or cb handle?

 

Good luck nc_rider! We are pullin' for ya!
