If your thinking of coming to Prime Inc or want to get your CDL license. I honestly believe Prime is a solid company to start your trucking journey. Make sure when you fill out the online application @ www.primeinc.com put my driver code STREXA on page 2 of the application when it ask who referred you. Thanks for watching my video 🙂🤙💯

I love how the haters say prime is a scam. Your brand new to the industry, got your cdl at prime, got paid training, and are in route to make $100,000 your first year solo. The average master's degree holders starting salary is $69,900/yr. And that's after they spend 5 1/2 to 6 years in school. In 3-4 months your on the way to an upper middle class income. Good on you. Keep up hard work.

@@TRUCKINREVIEWS Prime lease drivers are averaging $85K to $100K+ per year after all expenses but before taxes. The trucks are averaging $220K to $250K annual revenue. Whatever your experiences are, thats what the drivers are averaging, depending on how they run, how long they stay out, etc.

@@TRUCKINREVIEWS Yep, EVERYBODY pays taxes. My point is a brand new driver who goes to prime can be trained in 3 to 4 months, upgrade to a lease or lease purchase and make upper middle class income with only 3 to 4 months of training versus 4 to 7 years for a bachelors or a masters degree. Plus if they go lease purchase they can own the truck outright in either 3 or 4 years. All while making above average income. It's a good deal.

You got a really cool truck 🤘🏻it’s a smart move to be in a freightliner the ease of getting it fixed or doing it yourself is manageable. The ride isn’t that bad when I was in training I was in freightliners, western stars, Mack’s and a kenworth, and I’m currently driving a international. The ride of a freightliner isn’t the best but it also isn’t as horrible like the internationals 😂 so far the worst truck I’ve been in.

Turbo blew that alone was a special order part from Peterbilt 2 weeks in the shop. Passenger led headlight went out, light special order down 7 days. Electrical shortage behind the dash down 4-5days. They can only be worked on by a Peterbilt shop seemed everything was special order. So I switched to a freightliner and I’m making more dough because I’m not breaking down.
