    Thanks for the info everyone. Prime sounds like a great company so far. We plan to stay out on the road for a few months at a time. How is the relationship between drivers and office personnel? Is everyone friendly? I kept in touch with my last DM alot. Whenever I was around the office, we'd go out for food and hang out for awhile. That was one of the pros of that company.

    My guy is really nice... We have a great working relationship, but nothing beyond that.

    I try and stay out of Springfield, and when I do get in, I will stop in and say hi and conduct any business that might be needed.... his phone is always ringing and he's got messages to answer.... and a family to get home to eventually... By no means does he make me feel unwelcome or like I am bothering him... By nature, I keep it short and sweet.

    We joke a little back and forth over the Qualcomm but its pretty professional... Im pretty satisfied.

    He works five days a week, plus he works a couple additional days on some weekends... and when they work weekends they are covering 3 times as many drivers than normal...

    I'm also considering Prime and have a question. Do Prime's trucks have APU's?

    Thanks

    I've looked at their website 1000 times. They do have APU's. Thank god. Alot of my fuel at ATS was wasted on running the truck in the winter
