YES! I totally agree about having windows in sleeper berths. It's a necessity when my senior cat will be my copilot along with her litter box & I just can't go with a company if their trucks don't have windows! Kenworths are the absolute best!

I am in cdl school now with Tennessee Truck Driving school, they are helping me try to get started with Danny Herman in a few weeks I am excited to hear all the positive vibes about them, thanks man hope to see you on the road

That’s awesome! Glad to hear man. There will be ups and downs but they have good people with good intentions. Best of luck to you man. God bless.

I was at DHT for over a year and loved it. Only reason I left was to see what it would be like to be home on weekends. Spoiler alert: it’s not all it’s cracked up to be with only 34 to 48 hours at home. So now I’m coming back to DHT and super excited about it. Will be back in orientation at mountain city on Monday.

Thanks for the video bro. I start orientation on the 10th of may in Tennessee

That’s awesome brother, you’re going to be happy at DHT!

Hello are you still with DHT and how do you like it do you do physical and drug test there or before how does everything work orientation

I drove for Danny Herman 2018/2019 was the best company driver job because the average load is 1300 miles per load. The management do treat you right and driver services personnel call you periodically to make sure you’re doing well. One down side the safety people at DHT were calling me in for running stop signs 🛑 on client property when there’s obviously no chance for a collision additionally the computer will gig you for driving to close even when you’re in bumper to bumper traffic. Being counseled on these issues was upsetting for me I don’t have any and never had any moving violations or collisions on my record. Additionally when driving for a living I can and have been taking care of myself and the property that feeds me. I don’t like being second guessed I suppose that’s why I was able to leave. I went on to a job that put me in hotels every night and CPM are between 58-67 CPM.

@@billyjack505 I’m glad it only gets better as time goes on by!!

So, the sleeper windows you mentioned, do they have screens in them to keep the bugs out? Customer’s??? Do you mean SHIPPERS AND RECEIVERS? Are they 24hrs with overnight truck Parking? Also, how can you say they’re a good company when you only been there 30 days??? All companies treat you good the first 6 months. Is that per/Diem voluntary?

What's the avg length of trip ?

What's the avrage miles per week?

I go to orientation on thursday! I was curious if the truck came with anything? Mini fridge and intake mainly? Is it something I should save up for and keep in mind? Thank you so much for making this video !

No fridge but I bought one from the TA and it fits good. I paid $100 I think. Keeps everything cold. The truck has an inverter with plugs, But the place for the fridge has the cigarette lighter plug. What’s the intake you’re asking about?

And welcome to DHT, they really are good people here. What terminal are you out of?

Coming over there soon tired of swift no miles

What was the pay like?

Is DHT worth retiring from? Starting my second career my wife and I want to team drive from a good company in the near future. Maybe be owner operators. Looking for a company where we’re not a number. And we can work the next 15 years or so god willing. See the nation together, makes some money, and be treated fairly.

I can honestly say you can make some decent money and see some country. I don’t believe they have too many owner operators and they only travel to certain states. The good ones. You’re kind of a number, but not really. Your dispatcher may make you feel like that sometimes (they have a lot going on) but they are always respectful. The in-house people are always awesome to communicate with. Hope that helps you sir.

What is the average waiting time at a customer?

No I came back to the local job I had before I went OTR. DHT will be my choice again if I go OTR.

That's how majority of drivers are , they don't take care of the truck.

I made more than .46 cents a mile with my first job after getting my cdl. An experienced driver should be no less than .65 cents a mile. Sounds like a good place, just horrible pay
