    Only convertible tranny I know of is the 9 to 13...Any of those new Cascadias have the DT12? The more I read on that tranny, the more I'd like to try one.

    BTW I just sent in the application today. W00T!

    JCT put five Evolutions with the DT12 transmissions into service in September on a trial basis. I'm hoping that they get more too! From what I've read, it's the best automatic out there.

    Well I wont be joining the fleet. FFE and Western Express royally screwed me. The way they reported only come to four months. JCT requires 6.

    Now I dont know what I am going to do...

    Go to one of a number of "starter" companies - get your two - six months experience
    (keep it clean) and reapply. Good luck

    well easily to dispute. Don't you have pay stubs that show your pay and for how many miles? Every company I've worked for show your milage and the pay for that milage.

    Got a pre-plan today going to Shelbyville, IN for 1,540 miles. There are some options for the routing on this trip that a company driver would have to get approval for. The quickest and shortest way is all in the north through Iowa. It's 10 miles longer to drop down I-29 towards Kansas City, but Missouri fuel is a bargain (although St. Louis traffic isn't). If the weather in Nebraska doesn't cooperate, you can drop down to I-70 without breaking the bank. Being able to take the route that I want is one of my favorite benefits as a lease operator.
