    Hey all!! okay let me see... New swifty, right off mentors truck put me on dedicated Procter & Gamble. Picks up in Tunkhannock,pa and stay east coast . Company driver and pays 44 cents mile, but im lucky if i see 400 miles in day, and that's where they get yah. Some weeks are great and some are okay. But on the other end i do get home every week to take my 34 reset,and also some home time if needed. Its a pretty good mix of Drop and hooks and bump to docks. Never driver unload. Not a great thing ,but also usually run at night, which means DOT scales are closed, but never really carry more than 19,000 lbs so nice and lite. usually paper towels,TP,diapers,ect. :biggrin_2554:

    Thanks for the help Tapeworm. I guess don't have enough posts to reply to your PM. I'll have to get a hold of rec. when I get a chance. I live in Mankato so I was just hoping they have something that gets close to here. I dont mind staying on the road for a few weeks but not really looking to stay out for months at a time like I hear some drivers have to do. I just got my license in late Aug so would have to do some training but can you get on dedicated right out of training? Thanks for any help you people can give me!!!

    Phoenix Dedicated????

    I live near Phoenix but my home terminal is Lewiston.....so I'm kinda out of the Phoenix loop.

    So the question is: Does anybody KNOW which dedicated account we run out of Phoenix and who to contact. I like running OTR but it's killing my marriage.
