    I don't know if you're seeing this, but I'm thinking about doing the Swift academy. Charlotte is 100 mi away from me, and I don't know of any other training locations closer to Asheville, but I can do Uber over there because Uber is really busy in Charlotte. I think training is Monday through Friday anyway. I'm honestly waiting on a call back from my local Ingles, since their distribution center is right around the corner for me, and I can get trained with them. But Swift is my next choice.

      That's awesome. My best advice is to get on a dedicated account asap. And if it's not too late try to use my driver code as a reference! 457307 Goodluck

    I make about 50k a year not driving, but work is drying up and I'm thinking about making the jump. I dont really want to do it for the same pay but with little to no home time. If I am to go otr and be away from my fam for weeks at a time, I want to make a substantial increase in income.

  • @DistantRelatives47
    @DistantRelatives47 Рік тому

    Im about done with academy, and my recruiter told me OTR reefer was where the money was at. I don't mind being out on the road for 3-4 weeks and being home 3-4 days, but I also heard that dedicated accounts like Walmart are also really good because its consistent and you aren't stuck waiting for drive leader to set you up with loads. Any input on that? Have you done OTR? Reefer only pays 1cpm more than dry van, but is it worth the hassel of the additional time and headache?

    I wanted to ask you if you could do a video explaining the equipment that you use inside your truck and if it was supplied by swift or did you have to buy it. Are i guess i’m trying to ask what should a new driver need inside the truck

    • @ownleyotrtrucking1932
      @ownleyotrtrucking1932 Рік тому

      You definitely want a Micowave and a range of different tools like a hammer, pliers, wire cutters, gloves. That's the basics

      No they test you at the place where they train you then they upload the scores and your dmv will retrieve them when you go get your cdl

    Man I’ve done so much research the last few months… I’ve been thinking I’m dead set on CFI or ROEHL. After looking into swift today I think I’ve changed my mind.. it really seems like it’s completely your own choice to do otr, regional, dedicated or local?? Is that correct? Do you know what home time usually looks like for regional?

    A swift location is right here in Georgia(Metro Atlanta) "Decatur, GA". Not sure if it's a training school there. Would be very convenient for me. I could still work my CLASS B CDL job, while I train for my CLASS A CDL.

  • @darrylwmurphy738
    @darrylwmurphy738 Рік тому

    What I learn from a driver who worked for a transit company, he told me that you will have " Good drivers and some bad ones". If you hear anything that's negative look above it. An stay away from those are negative .

  • @darrylwmurphy738
    @darrylwmurphy738 Рік тому

    Don't run yourself down, pace yourself, you do have time to eat something, take shower, etc. Don't let yourself being control by the clock , make time and you can still get these matters done on time. An it's not just "You have to do this or have do that", Hurry up be quick about it, it's not worth burnining yourself out on the account of it. So don't , you have time and pace yourself.

  • @darrylwmurphy738
    @darrylwmurphy738 Рік тому

    What I want to share with you , that you should pace yourself

  • @darrylwmurphy738
    @darrylwmurphy738 Рік тому

    I have something that you would to know, what I learned from C.R. England. If you hear anything that's negative about any carrier or Swift; simply to look above it.
