    Well im all done with teh 2 days of orientation at JR Schugel and things went smooth and the guys and gals there are awesome. Seems like an awesome outfit, really laid back setting and a top notch shop there. Got an 07 Kenworth that ill be driving also has a tripac generator on it so will keep warm and cool without having to idle. Well gonna go load up my truck with my junk and will be getting a load tomorrow and running for two weeks yay!!

    Congratulations. You'll like having that generator. I'm addicted to my APU now and would be tough to live without it. The biggest part being that it comes on when batteries get low keeping my refrigerator cool and all other electronics up and running.

    Yeah its gonna be nice having that apu dont have to worry about dead batteries, cold starts, saves fuel, and wont have to listen to dispatch complain about idle time.
    Plus its a tri pac by thermo king so its a nice one, just have to by a 1500 watt inverter then maybe think about a fridge, but dont have much storage space in the kenworth.

    Home time is out two weeks home 2 days, been pretty steady on the miles about 3000 a week give or take depending on where you drop. The equipment is mostly Internationals, I have a kenworth so they have a few different styles but most all are internationals. Check out there website to. So far im really happy with them.

    I am no longer with them, I was with them for about 7 months then I got offered a local driving position. They treated me pretty good in the 7 months. Only had a couple complaints which is normal with any decent sized company. They kept me busy and was always home when I wanted to be.
     
    Digit Thanks this.
