    For all the Prime Inc. drivers here. How many miles are y’all averaging a week?

    Depends on what division you are going into and other factors.

    For reefer, you can expect to average 2000-2700 miles a week give or take.

    This is going to be hard to fathom as each driver may have different loads going to different places some go here some won't go there etc etc some want home time some drive 11 hrs per day others only 10 just assume your averaging 650 m per day x 5 that should give you a good average.

    Thanks. I’m just trying to get an average. I know all situations are different. After bouncing back and forth between CFI, Stevens and Prime... I decided Prime. They said after training my starting pay will be .47 cpm and that’s refrigerated

    Small trucks which kind of sucks but I can deal with it.

    A couple of years ago the Fleet wide average for company drivers was 2300 miles a week.

    Prime isn't the best but it's not the worst either. Like any big company, you need to watch your back, or they will walk all over you if you let them (Middle management).

    Easy as pie if you can do the job and make them money.

    Good question! People always jump into a thread and spew a bunch of diarrhea. ;)

    I was with Prime for 7 years. Walked away recently this year.

    I'm going to spend the winter drinking vodka under a saguaro cactus somewhere in the desert, with noting to be concerned about but the beauty of next sunset amidst vast desolation.
