Prime has been wonderful for us. It probably helps that we have an amazing dispatcher (Ryan B.) who works with my husband instead of fighting him on everything. My husband went to trucking school and applied (When applying you MUST do it online first) two weeks before his DMV test and they called him the day he took the test. He hears a lot of people say, "Oh, I'm sorry you work for them. They make you drive too slow, you don't make any money." We find that isn't true. They do ask you to drive slower (which improves fuel efficiency) BUT they pay you a fuel BONUS for anything better than 7.25mpg. They have lightweight trucks which get that easy, plus "wings" to help increase that mpg. My husband started at $.43 a mile for the company, they paid him back his school costs, and at Springfield and Pittston terminals you can see how much they take care of their drivers. We followed our dispatcher to the lease fleet and are seeing even more money. My husband says he knows they're quality because they take care of their drivers and they take care of their equipment.
