[@danboyer3973]

Michigan man! Me too. Recently CDL licensed going to orientation in early February.

[@juan131697]

Thank you for helping this kid. Im star trucking and I hope if some day i need help someone help me too.

[@nathanmyers6634]

This is the first time I have watched a video of yours. You're a good person for helping that kid. Kudos 👌

[@Parvati_1]

Sir you are amazing, thanks for the info! Will be looking into Maverick.

[@naturalborntrucker598]

Naamah, you are too kind.

[@shannoncrabtree48]

I notice in most drivers videos, no one has health insurance through the company is that for a reason?

[@showcivicred]

Man thank you for this information. I just applied today for the student cdl program Maverick offers. Hoping to get that going asap.

[@loyaltymimz7161]

So how did it go?

[@showcivicred]

@@loyaltymimz7161 I'm working at roehl LOL

[@eriklarson5632]

Hello. Great video as I'm considering signing on. What software are you using here? I'd love to track everything better like you're doing. Thanks

[@ViralVidReview]

Are you still at maverick

[@Antonio-ti2he]

Thank you for the video. Two quick questions. What CDL school did you attend and what division are you in? Thank you in advance for your reply.

[@naturalborntrucker598]

I got my cdl in Michigan, Fleet Compliance Group, great school. I’m in the regional midwest division.

[@hypnotikzen6229]

Natural Born Trucker, are you from MI ? Just curious I live in Lansing.

[@kvonsmith7900]

@@naturalborntrucker598 I live in Michigan also in Farmington hills and Wana know is fleet compliance a good school to get started for the CDL problem?? And I don't have no kids nor woman and I do have a license wit no driving record. ?

[@mntrivertransportation5841]

Super good advice buddy also do you know anything about the TC at your company and the pay I'd appreciate the advice thank you .

[@stillyoungish]

My birthday is in a couple of days and I’m wanting to go to maverick...more than likely I want to do Glass hauling division but I don’t think I have the endorsements and I think I have to wait till I’m 21....how does all of that work with doing the Glass hauling....don’t they use stepdecks or regular flatbeds??

[@naturalborntrucker598]

I think 21 is the limit. No endorsements needed at Maverick. Yes, stepdecks for glass. Hit me up if you apply!

[@stillyoungish]

Just applied yesterday

[@jesusmelendez9563]

Thank you for this video. Very informative. Do you have to take truck and trailer home, or just tractor? Thanks

[@naturalborntrucker598]

Both tractor and trailer.

[@izzcarrasco]

Yes

[@lawrencegamble1951]

You still at maverick

[@mikeodonnell3390]

Did Brian Hall quit doing videos??

[@johnmerlo5005]

Normal jobs work 40 hrs per week this guy works 70+ hours straight time so divide gross by 2

[@tg580]

Great video. I've watched a few Mavrick reviews and learned way more here.

[@latishaanderson8609]

All of your question and comments on this page was very informative refreshing I learned a lot from all of y'all questions and answers. Thank you.

[@buzzmorley6333]

Gracias for the breakdown.

[@fishface6247]

Maybe I missed it b4 but cna you explain on the paystub what they take out for benefits? Health insurance, dental family ect?

[@naturalborntrucker598]

Depends on what you select from the buffet, will be different for everyone. Details on mav website or contact recruiting

[@MrRusty2wal]

How is the health insurance? I didn't see that when you showed pay stubs. Just curious what extra would come out for family plan. Thanks Bud.

[@naturalborntrucker598]

They've got decent coverage. Medical, dental, vision and cafeteria plans. Medical is United Healtcare, Delta Dental, VSP for vision. Deducted out of your paycheck each week. Just the family medical plan is $121.25 per week. Hope this helps. Shoot me an email, I can send you an attachment with all the details.

[@joeharris5851]

Starting at a good cpm then all the incentives really helps so you dont have to run yourself to death trying to get all those miles.

[@chazmobizmo8598]

NIce video. I am looking into Maverick currently. I have driven for CFI, I am looking into getting back on the road since local is much harder to get. Do you find that they get you home when they say they will? The glass division states that you are out 12-14 days. I was out 6 weeks at a time with CFI.

[@naturalborntrucker598]

They're good at getting you home. They claim a 98% success rate, which lines up with my experience. If you're regional and home weekly you might get stuck out 1-2 times per year. Glass guys often stay out many weeks or even months at a time from what I hear. If you can do 6 weeks out you'll be fine wherever you go.

[@juanthompson8016]

What's the $1000 a week guarantee that Maverick has? What's the stipulations?

[@naturalborntrucker598]

If you're available to work every day and you get a check for less than $1000 Maverick fills in the difference. That's pre tax pay. You'd have to be in a pretty bad spot- a serious breakdown or something- to not get $1000 top line.

[@kenmoore5556]

You have to be available to drive for 5 of the 7 days in the week. It can go up to $1200 depending on your tenure and performance, but $1000 is the low.

[@gfriday300]

One of the better breakdowns I’ve seen

[@fishface6247]

I subbed. Thinking about Maverick USA. Thanks for doing this! I plan on doing the same thing when I start!

[@jeremiahshamberger5932]

Who makes the most? Flatbed Regional or Flatbed USA?

[@sweetness2689]

Nice information 🙂. Were you regional or otr at Maverick?

[@4TheLoveOfGadgets]

I live in texas and we only have federal tax. Would i pay taxes in Arkansas?

[@TheOneshot78]

No

[@luzdivina2235]

Do they accept women on their CDL training?

[@deco6145]

Hey man great break down bro and Victor Wooten huh ... Have you heard Jaco Pastorio or Marcus Miller?

[@BaccaratNation]

Great videos, information, and spreadsheets. Can you explain how they do the per diem? How much vacation time/time off can you get. Was the vacation time you took paid? Wondering how you were able to get that much time off with less then 6 months in. Thanks

[@naturalborntrucker598]

So per diem is basically a deduction. It reduces your taxable income. I'm looking at one of my checks just before the holidays where my truck broke down- gross pay due to the minimum weekly guarantee was $1,100. Per diem was $66/day x 7days = $462. So my taxable income is $1,100 - $462 = $638. I made $1,100 but only paid taxes on $638. The vacation I took was NOT paid. You get one week paid vacation per year after 1 year, which I'm coming up on here in a month, woot! As far as taking unpaid time off, they're pretty liberal. You get 12 "special requests" per year, and they don't care how long you stay home as long as it's less than 12 consecutive days, after that they might take your truck from you. If you're USA or glass and stay out 3+ weeks you can take unlimited "home requests" that don't count against your 12 special requests. The bugger of it is, of course, you don't get paid when you take time off. Once you get accustomed to those checks it gets really hard to put in for time off.

[@BaccaratNation]

@@naturalborntrucker598 Thanks for the info. Great that they are giving the full per diem without taking a hit on your cpm as some other company's do (if they have it all).

[@A7XDisturbedFAN25]

Started CDL school on Christmas Eve and just starting my research as I am unsure which way to go either OTR or oil fields (within my state). These sets of videos have helped as being able to see the number's opposed to just hearing about the pay.

[@naturalborntrucker598]

I looked into oil fields a little bit and couldn't find much that didn't require 3-4 years experience. The pay is good, but you need the experience and from what I saw you had to live on site, and the living conditions sounded pretty terrible. Basically like living in a military camp.

[@izzcarrasco]

Hey i tryed to sign up to maverick and was simply told just.with my zip code here in atalnta they werent hirings in mableton Atlanta area ,so does that mean they dont want.to pay for.my school or no jobs with maverick.please explain this to me

[@BoloBro334]

D.R Izzy they told me the same thing yesterday, they told me they aren’t hiring in that area right now.

[@izzcarrasco]

@@BoloBro334 greatly appreciate the response and information .

[@naturalborntrucker598]

They might hire you on to USA or Glass. Sounds like they’ve got plenty of regional guys in that area.

[@izzcarrasco]

@@naturalborntrucker598 thank you, should i feel out rhe online application anyway?

[@Antonio-ti2he]

Excellent video!!!! Thank you.

[@RickyOHD]

What’s your schedule like doing that kinda average miles? I’m interested in doing the training with Maverick but I’m still worried about not being home. I know that’s a huge sacrifice and big change of lifestyle

[@naturalborntrucker598]

It is a huge sacrifice. Typically home Friday afternoon/evening and leave out Sunday afternoon/evening. Sometimes home Friday leave out Monday, rarely home Saturday leave out Sunday. You’re home for a reset, not a weekend, and you don’t know until thurs or fri what it’s going to look like.

[@truckstopreviews3997]

Prime Inc is a free cdl school and I make 2-5k per week. Train new drivers and make 5-9k per week. No large company can compete w Prime. You seem like a good fella so check us out.

[@nikolai1790]

Hey, I've been looking at options starting off Trucking. I'm only 19 so I still have another whole 2 years to research what company I'd like to start at. At first I was considering Roehl, but Maverick seems to be the better option when it comes to cpm and has decent miles. You videos have been super helpful and thank you for sharing all of this information. Hopefully by the time I start you'll still working for Maverick and I can use your referral haha. One question though, if it's not a priority for me to have home-time at my home for lets say 1-2 months would that be an advantage?

[@naturalborntrucker598]

It would be an advantage. You’d be looking at glass or USA divisions most likely if you came on to Maverick. I’m betting they’ll always be at the top of the list in terms of pay. Definitely look me up if you decide to come on board, no telling where I’ll be in 2 years. Good luck!

[@spazz.himself]

Hey, great Videos. I am going to CDL training In Jan. and should be getting out the Army in April. how soon do you recommend I should Apply? I will totally put you down as a referral as well. I have looked around online but do you know if they have a Veterans preference program or incentives? not a deal breaker if not. also I plan on moving back to Texas once I am out of the Army would that be an issue with being hired with them?

[@naturalborntrucker598]

Spazz Himself I’d say apply as soon as you can. I don’t see any downside to applying and then waiting, just one less thing you’ll have to do later. You’ll be a shoe in coming from the military. Send me an email man, I’ll give you my number and get you in the system as a referral. Good luck with the cdl training.

[@TheNeonInferno]

I am getting

[@TheNeonInferno]

Spazz Himself I’m getting out in 3 weeks and I applied a few months ago after you apply just call they get you ready to go ASAP I’m going to school in DEC through them during terminal leave. I say apply and call as soon as you drop that app they don’t deny as long as you don’t have bad accidents

[@anikagarcia8219]

Great info!! Really appreciate your input and clear charts!! Did maverick do a hair folicle test?

[@naturalborntrucker598]

Thanks Anika! Yes, you do the DOT urine drop and then Maverick has their own hair follicle test on top of that. They say they only go back so far, which I have to believe is true because otherwise they wouldn't have many drivers to choose from.

[@mitchellelawrence1815]

I live in nyc i thought maverick dont have no runs into nyc

[@naturalborntrucker598]

They run there from time to time. Don’t think they hire from there though.

[@mk007.]

Can you roughly estimate how much new guy after their cdl school will make a month? Ty

[@rinu3989]

Thanks for the vid!! I'm considering Mavericks, do they have driver facing cams or plans to get them?

[@Truccinwithlumberjacc]

They have them but they only come on during emergencies like a safety feature I believe. It’s in the newer rigs

[@ineedtostopwatchingyoutube5211]

Does Maverick guarantee time off on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and does that mean just the one day or a day or two before/after? Thanks for the video
