Training starting 11/22/15

Lol

 

Take a look at Google Maps - tons of trucks on the yard. Every kind Prime offers is there. Either OTR guys back for a break, down for repairs, out of service, trucks turned back in, trucks getting ready to be assigned, ready to be sold, brand new trucks, everything:

Hell, you'll see plenty at the Campus Inn:

Now, no offense, but you're worrying about something that is, best case scenario, 3 months down the line. Worry about finishing orientation first, passing your CDL tests second, then learning all you can in TNT. Once all that's done, you can start worrying about what kind of truck you'll be getting. Trust me, I know it's a big $125,000 nugget at the end (your VERY OWN big rig is pretty cool, in the grand scheme of things), but no skipping steps! Good luck and enjoy the journey...

 

Based on your LW comments, I assume you plan on going company? I do know of a company driver currently in a 2016 truck, but most don't get new trucks unless you lease. You'll for sure get a manual in training.

 

Good luck..You won't see the Lot at the main terminal ( until your final day) as you will be at the Campus Inn which is the hotel Prime owns and where they hold Orientation and training It is not part of the HQ campus or Building. There are plenty of trucks there but they belong to drivers who stay at the campus inn as well and many of them are the trainers for your 70 to 75 hours of OTR training. Also I do not think they have any proStars or Internationals for that matter.. Most of there fleet from is Cascadia Evolutions, Peterbilts and KW T680. Just passing along some information .

 

Looks like you need to update your information. It's now 14 days rather than 70 hours before testing & Prime sure does have Prostar's. That or my truck is a figment of my imagination.

 

Well 70 -75 hours is roughly 14 days so my information is updated. Thats great I just know that they are not the norm and I doubt that he will see a Pro Star at the campus inn.. It would make sence they had some internationals considering Mr. Low owns an International dealership..
