    If given the choice of Werner or Prime, my vote goes for Prime. APU's on their trucks and more pay. I read on here somewhere a newbie starting out could make .41cpm when driving in the NE on a LW truck. Theres only one other company that comes close to it, and thats Maverick. Might want to give Prime a second thought Thomas.

    Lookin' at your pics of the drivers lounge. Those drivers in the pic don't look lightweight to me. Is it really that hard to pass their BMI test?

    I am having a rough go of it today. Not Prime's fault, but I'll detail it when I have some time later.
