3 MPH more and now a pet policy, non aggressive breeds and under 40lbs. All swift needs now is APUs or inverters. Swift is definitely trying to recruit and retain more drivers.

I really appreciate, your guys comments and opinions. I guess I need to get more info on Falcon. Falcon guy said It'll be over the road but I could be home on weekends if I wanted too, or could stay out longer if I wanted to. The only run certain areas nothing west Kansas City. Mostly Midwest and eastern US. I was kinda thinking the same thing about limiting myself on what I could make. I also just received a phone call from a Swift recruiter and he just sent me a pre hire letter. And Swift is offering .36 cpm to start off. I have little while to get this figured out. I have so excited tough choices to make. I appreciate this site and the info it has to offer.

Hi everyone, this is a great site with a ton of great information. I'll be starting CDL School pretty soon. Ive even filling out applications on line and I've talked to a few recruiters. As of know I have two possible opportunities, so far. One is with Trans Am, which is OTR and starts at .32cpm. The other one is Falcon Transportation, and is OTR with mostley dedicated routes. Can be home on weekends or stay out longer. And the starting pay there is $160 a day, and if I stay out longer I would get $75 for the 34 hrs reset. What are your thoughts on the daily pay versus CPM? The daily pay would be consistent, and the CPM would obviously vary. Any thoughts or ideas is much appreciated.

Thank you for your reply. I've been reading lots of information on this wonderful site, for over 6months but just recently registered. I've been reading many of her post, they are very informative.

Hello everyone, Im starting CDL school at the end of Oct, and I have a job offer from Trans Am. I've read all kinds of bad reviews about Trans am, but it's been mostly about the lease program. I have no intentions of leasing, even though I've heard they push the lease program really hard,but I know better not to lease. I'm just looking to get as much experience as possible, and drive as many safe miles as possible for a rookie driver. I guess what information I'm looking for, what kind of miles can I expect? And how do they treat there company drivers? Do they give you the same opportunities to succeed, as they do to lease drivers? I know there's and lot things that factor into that. I know this is a performance based industry. LIke always being early to your appointments, being professional with everyone. Anyone out there a company driver, or past company driver? Any information is appreciated.
