New PTL pay

IDK for sure. But, it may be referring to the different milage rates most companies pay. At Swift, the cpm is larger if you have a shorter run, or if you are driving a reefer load, etc. It isn't a single rate all the time. Maybe the 'up to' refers to the top cpm rate for a short reefer load (or similar depending on how they structure their load rate).
That would be my guess.

 

Hiring on as a non-experianced driver pays X.

1 year pays Y

2 years pays Z

Up to 65 cpm

 

The .65 is the top base pay based on experience which you’d need 15 years for. I’m fairly certain they did this just to keep their old timers there and happy since a quite a few places are raising pay and no one with 15 years is joining PTL for otr. At five years you’re at .60, I’m about to hit 3 years and I’ll be at .55. This is for otr, they have regional and dedicated accounts now that have a different scale. For example their Miller Molson account starts at .60 I believe, regardless of experience. You’d have to talk with a recruiter to be 100% on any of this, they’ve changed things a lot since the start of the year.

Any other questions I’ll try and answer.

 

'Up to' usually means what the very top drivers get paid , in other words - not you
