Prime Running Low On Trucks?
Topic 24749 | Page 3
That was my thought too, but guess we will see. Although, my cascadias didnt have visible antenna and i got great reception.
Moving stuff from.truck to truck in the snow is going to be soooo fun
Moving stuff in or out blows, no matter the weather. Only good time is when it is a Driver’s first truck assignment.
Yeah i think ill wait and pay PSD students to do it for me. They need tge money and im lazy lol
PSD:
Prime Student Driver
Prime Inc has a CDL training program and the first phase is referred to as PSD. You'll get your permit and then 10,000 miles of on the road instruction.
The following is from Prime's website:
Prime’s PSD begins with you obtaining your CDL permit. Then you’ll go on the road with a certified CDL instructor for no less than 75 hours of one-on-one behind the wheel training. After training, you’ll return to Prime’s corporate headquarters in Springfield, Missouri, for final CDL state testing and your CDL license.

- Enter program, study and test for Missouri CDL permit.
- Start driving/training at Prime Training Center in Springfield, Missouri.

On-the-Road Instruction / 10,000 Miles

Congrats Rainy! That's a sharp looking truck!
What are the advantages of the International over the Frightliner? What is your top speed now and HP?

Personal preference. My favorite Truck is one that doesn't break down, the left door stays closed, and the wheels keep rollin'!

internationals are sturdier. better i sulated and the suspension is much better. Both of these are like floating on a cloud compared to thw cascadia. you dont feel the wind or the drafts the same way. its like a cadillac vs a mercedes IMO. others will argue with me im sure.
I thought it was a Mercedes vs a Pinto?
Your analogies are all over the place Rainy!
I love my Frightliner/ Freightshaker. But it’s my first truck and so I have nothing to compare it with. Kinda like your first love when you were a teenager.

That’s different. I would think the trailer would interfere with the reception.
