    Wondering how you have been I saw a blue MAV IC truck the other day. I thought that you had the only one and it was sold.

    If you train how will that work as you being a lease operator and I hope that your truck don't get torn up.

    The other blue Mav Ic is prolly my buddy in the old Melton freightliner. He owns his truck outright and he'll peel your paint when he comes by you going home lol.

    As to training. I get paid $300/wk to train a cdl student (driver needing his cdl) but we dont run team. A trainee with his cdl I can run team with and thats where I make money with the extra revenue. I gotta pay him $300 and Prime kicks in another $300 so the trainee running team makes at least $600/wk.
     
    popcorn169 Thanks this.

    Well I'll be glad when these first couple weeks get by lol. First part of year always tough for flats. I still managed to get loads this week when some were complaining (I'll leave that alone as the reasons why they didnt have too many variables that I dont know). However it wasnt a great week. Im gonna start TNT in the next month unless something changes,not decided yet on PSD but my fm and a friend of mine on reefers seem to think it would be a good idea to do PSD also. Overall since my start in mid May its been great here at Prime. I dont dawdle (too much lol,maybe a long break here or there) and I stayed pretty busy up until Christmas when freight (for me anyway) fell on its face. Looking forward to a great 2014

    Was wondering where you were hiding at. If you do the training will you get another truck or do it with the one you have now? I know you have told me before just can't remember. Anywho hope you have a great 2014.
