    Leasing back on after 6 months off working overseas. Do I have to do the 15000 mile refresher before going solo?

    I'd hazard a wild arse guess of "no," but only safety is going to be able to answer that. You need to call recruiting, and get that answer through them.

    Jimmybones - Love your post. I just spent the last 2 hours reading from your original post. My fiance and I are in CDL school now and are definitely considering prime as team drivers. Thank you for all the info you have shared about the company!
     
    JimmyBones Thanks this.

    This is a great thread thanks for all the info. I start Smith and Solomon next week and I'm looking to go to prime as soon as I finish. I'm in Mount Vernon NY I see them on i95, 684, and 84 all the time they even deliver to a warehouse down the street from me. I haven't been able to catch up with a driver yet. Does anyone know exactly what States consists of there northeast regional division? How often could I expect to be home?

    I saw you on the mpg list, lol

    In other news, I'm down to Prime and Schnieder., and the more I read this the more I lean to Prime.

    I'm about to start out in my own Prime truck - can't wait! The training experience has been very positive here and so far I am well pleased with Prime. One thing I am pretty convinced of and that is you won't make better money as a beginner anywhere else. Just be ready to be away from home for long periods of time.
     
    Charlami, 123456 and Dinomite Thank this.

    Grats on upgrade.

    My TNT was given the option to voluntarily quit rather than be terminated this morning. Went through my truck like a tornado, breaking and taking things, and leaving his trash everywhere. Took me an hour to clean up.

    Also got a puppy. :)

    Jimmybones - I should be heading to Prime at the end of May once my CDL school is complete. Any way we can request you for my TNT trainer and give you the referral bonus too? Been following this whole thread and you for sure helped my fiance and I make our decision on Prime over the others.
