Which one would you recommend?

If I may add to ip's post... You'll also most likely be done training sooner. Getting your miles is easier on reefer side than flatbed. I'm flatbed and have around 8 thousand miles left. The other people from my same hire & orientation date in SLC are already solo and have been for a few weeks. Food for thought....

I don't think there would be much difference on your paycheck between the two. While the base cpm for flatbed is higher it isn't worth the amount of work you will be doing. There is also a large investment in equipment for flatbed. The tap pay is decent so it will pay for itself but it will still take a while depending on how many tarp loads you get.

A long term goal might help you decide.

 

No love for the tanker division?

 

Haha.... no one ever does. I'm trying to get through training and get into the tanker division so I can shed some light on it here. I think that there is one guy on here who pulls tank for Prime, and he just switched.

 

Didja bring your helmet??? Beware the surge, n' rookie drivers cuttin' ya off!

 

Once when I was in springfield there was a tanker instructor there that waited a week for a student. nobody wanted to get the endorsement and get going...
