    I probably should have asked long ago, but does Pride have terminal locations, or drop lots/secured facilities around the Bay Area?

    This I ask because I won't be able to take the truck home... :(

    You know, that is a good question. What is their policy for parking trucks during HT? I had a secure lot but the bro is getting kicked out cause the guy he's renting from is buying another drilling rig.

    The idling ticket was $300 bucks.

    I'm not sure on the Bay area, Pride does borrow some yard space in mira loma from it's demented big brother.

    So Far so good. Middle of my second trip.

    1st Trip
    Salt Lake City, UT to Scranton, PA 2090 miles 11/5 to 11/8

    2nd Trip
    Edison, NJ to Ogden, UT 2310 miles(including deadhead) 11/9 to 11/13

    RP,

    Thanks for the info so far about Pride. I'm regional right now in IL but if I decide to go back OTR Pride is at the top of my list. I see several of their trucks going through my area but we have a Wal Mart DC 25 miles from us so they are running to it.

    Here are a few questions I think anyone interested in Pride would like to know.

    What are the trucks governed at?
    Do all trucks have APUs?
    Do they have any terminals? If so where?
    Paper logs or paperless?
    Main running areas?

    Thanks for the great posts and info. Sounds like you've found a good place to drive!

    I suddenly feel lazy after seeing those miles. I only had one trip over 2k miles where I'm at. Aren't ya glad you left your last company now?
