New equipment, I believe ALL company drivers are in a 12 or 13 Prostar now.
All trucks have Maxxforce engine, Eaton auto, and electric APU, governed at 65, will run faster with good fuel milage. My last week I ran 70 all week(on medical leave now, will be back at it in about 3 weeks) They are installing new quailcom's with e-log, but you have the chioce of paper unless you get log violations, then they make you go to e-log

Multi stop pay, tarp pay, layover is determined by dispatch(not clock), pay is book miles with .10 per deim
Home most weekends, if you have to stay out usually get home by Thursday of the next week.

I had to start in van because that is all the experience I had. 90 days in van I ran mostly SE, had 1 trip to Liverpool, NY we have a "regular customer" there. Got layed over for the weekend on that trip due to brakedown, that's another story, averaged 2600-2700 miles a week in van October to January

Switched to flat and have run South East, Mid West, and Alberta, averaged 2600 miled a week in flat from January to June.

any questions, ask
