    Yes they will pay for your room if you pick out a truck so a lot of drivers pick trucks quick because they dont want to cover the cost of the room

    That's insane that they would pay for a room almost 2 weeks instead of just fixing a minor problem... Sounds really unorganized

    Exactly my point its a mess right now. Maybe was just a bad time to come up, but the more i sit here the more i think this was a bad idea

    Sorry you are getting the run around Colt. Anything good to say about your experience being there or was it all pretty much a pain in the ###?

    Where do you plan on taking the truck to lease onto when you finally get it fixed?

    Well i met a lot of drivers picked up some good pointers here and there and heard plenty of whoppers to but as far as quality went it wasnt bad per say but with so much on the line i would feel better not being just another driver caught in what is a obvious mill. Being here so long and going to quality everyday you see a lot of drivers turning in trucks from all kinds of companies and it made me doubt myself a lil bit about those new truck payments because they were turning those lonestars in fast. So im going to try a older truck and deal with the repairs as they come so i wont have to move into this new one just to make the truck payments. Because the one thing that you hear over and over is drivers are not getting enough loads to cover their payments. All these guys cant just be lazy some of them know more than i may ever know about a truck and they failed so it made me rethink my plan because 660 a week for 7 years is a lot of hard work at a almost non stop pace. And these guys have lost my trust so its to much to take on for me

    Yeah I think getting into a new truck has it's benefits, but that's too much for me, I just want a somewhat safe way to try out being an O/O. I'm pretty certain I can do it but you never know I guess
