This is the recording from our Facebook Live 2020 Petebilt Ultraloft Truck Tour. If you have any questions, comment below! #peterbilt #peterbilttruck #primeinc
Trucks seem to get just as fancy as most cars with the wood trim which I like. I know some drivers in other videos outside of Prime Inc drivers don't like automatic for many reasons but I can see advantages of less wear & tear on knees, going through cities with stop lights when I have up & down shift & ect but automatic still gets the job done. I know my opinion doesn't matter but just saying. God Bless & thank you drivers what you do to help keep America running.😊
Hello dear friend. I watched your beautiful video from Iran. Peterbilt is my favorite tractor trailer. I have a question about dimension. How long is the length of this tractor?
Yes I did that was in March then I had an family emergency but that is all taking care of I want to start in May I think I have to redo my application again
For not being a driver I like this truck better than the International I saw in another video. Lol I've heard this joke when I drove a school bus about the turn signal fluid.
The King's Servant TMC did a study. Dropping top speed to 62 not only improved mpg but reduced overall maintenance costs by 30%, because of the reduced stress on the truck. May not work for your business model but probably does for others. Cheers
62 mph at 1400 to 1500 rpm is still stressing the engine and engine components out,still using more fuel than it should because the engine is laboring harder compared to one with higher torque rating. If it's working harder to move the weight the it's using more fuel,cutting into the bottom line. That is why you spec the truck out for the area of operation and the ammount of weight you are hauling but large companies won't do that because they would rather go on the advice of someone who has never driven a truck for more than a few miles. Less stress? When was the last time that you found one of these used castrated trucks that was not completely worn out by 750k miles? I'm not going to debate this with you but I will say this....2.60 rears, 18 spd and a military spec (750 hp) Cat in a 379 that constantly get 9.5 per mile with over a million miles on it speaks for itself.
62 MPH top speed is just a rolling traffic jam. On a two lane Interstate in the States with 70mph truck limits you learn to look for Prime, May etc. trucks ahead of you because you just know they are going to create passing hazzards.
Call Fed Ex custom critical and find a owner needing a driver, you may end up running team but that is where the big money is at. If you are ready to stay out for months at a time this is the place plus you will always be in top of the line trucks that are nearly new. I brought home $1750 to $2500 a week and that is the honest truth, I have zero reason to lie to you.
@2:09 is this back in action?? Now that the minimum mileage is back to 30k miles does the additional $300 kick in if you’re eligible to upgrade but not called in to upgrade?? Thanks
Great question! With the required TNT mileage down to 30k, you are paid a guarantee of $700/week throughout this phase. If you remain on a trainer's truck and you reach 40k miles, your pay is then bumped up to $800/week.
It just depends on the inventory when you come through the upgrade process to get into your own truck. We have a rotating selection of trucks. The largest amount is Freightliner, then Peterbilt, then International. Once you lease with Prime for at least 3 months, you can order a specific truck (color, make, model, upgrades).
Unfortunately, we have recently updated our hiring areas, and we are not currently hiring out of FL, GA, and CA at this time. We hope to have positions open up in the near future, but we do not have a tentative date.
We are getting new Freightliner, Peterbilt, and International trucks every month. You can see our inventory on www.successleasing.com/inventory. The inventory changes daily since we fill our trucks as soon as they become available.
We have Freightliner, Peterbilt, and International trucks in our fleet for both company drivers and independent contractors. This truck could be used by company drivers, but it just depends on the availability when you go to upgrade. The inventory changes daily, but you can get an idea of truck options here: successleasing.com/inventory/.
Unfortunately, we require that you live within our hiring area in the United States and have a United States driver's license for one year prior to driving for us.
Over the last 16.5 years of driving full time. I've driven everything except westernstar. Which I don't care for the looks of. What I can say is I've been in a Peterbuilt 365 for almost 3 years. Granted not much room, but so far no complaints. If and when I make the transition to go otr. I'm leaning toward leasing. Peterbuilt loft. Simply because of the room and a smoother ride. 😊😊😊
Per our Peterbilt rep Van (in the video), he said "I'm comfortable behind the wheel and still have room to slide back some more." We'd love to have you apply! Go to www.driveforprime.com/?r=youtube or give us a call at 888-664-9121. We have recruiters available by phone from 8 am to 6 pm central.
Thanks for watching! Per Van (Peterbilt rep in video), he said "Not on the new trucks, and we are retrofitting the old trucks. " If you want to connect with Van, let us know.
It's not something to be bragging about it means that drivers are going to be sitting around not making money and Prime will be flying drivers all over the U.S from terminal to terminal trying to get them in a truck. It's not a good problem to have, it's an expensive one
@@leir2005 Prime bring in tons of newbies each week. I feel sorry for those having to be stuck in tnt waiting for a truck. Trying to sleep on a moving bed that bounces you around lol. Atleast they did give them an extra 300 for waiting
Hey Joe! We are hiring out of TN for refrigerated, flatbed, and tanker drivers. Give us a call at 888-664-9121 or apply online at www.primeinc.com/?r=youtube.
@@southsidedatruckersouthsid2530 with the work history that 10 year just means all the jobs you had on your record. Like newly 21 year olds just turning 21 and they had maybe 3 jobs in there life time they would require you to bring anything pertaining to those jobs u held. It doesnt mean u need exactly 10 years of work history other wise they wouldnt have all these drivers
All of Prime's trucks have Super Singles.. Duals are better, and more stable, if you blow a tire, you can still roll, to get it fixed, or replaced.. Super Singles, you blow, you are parked.. for awhile..
2020 truck being filmed in April 2019...? how does that work...?? and what's with all the rivets on the outside..? it looks like a steam train from 1885... and what shocked me the most is Disk Brakes being an "OPTION"... WTF..!! we did away with drum brakes years ago here in Europe... :/
If I was a driver, I would want to drive a Pete since I live in PNW, OR. and since Paccar is in this PNW. have to help the local company builders. I have been a Paccar fan for a long time. I cousin drives a KW for WINCO. he use to have the W900L I just retired early last yr on SSD/Pension after 30 yrs. the company i worked for sold and closed after 118 yrs on 10/18.
More drivers than trucks is not actually something to be bragging about. The driver is not making money for the company and more importantly he is not making money for his family. I got hired on at Werner in 2006 and they had that same problem, more drivers than trucks and there were guys sitting around for weeks waiting for trucks and being paid $50 a day to wait so if that company does not have a truck for you after orientation I would move on down the road A.S.A.P
We currently have Freightliner, International, and Peterbilt trucks. If you choose to drive as an independent contractor, you are able to choose your truck. If you drive as a company driver, you're assigned a truck on a first come first serve basis.
Derrick Wilson we do not currently carry any KWs. We have Peterbilt, International, and Freightliner models available. We are also running a trial with 25 Volvos.
@@juanzavala1989 if your lucky enough to get a trainer that has a manual then you will take the test in that truck but if you get a trainer that has a automatic then you will take the test in that one and very few trainers have manuals
Prime installs a specific inverter on the trucks. I would suggest reaching out to our Peterbilt reps or Success Leasing for additional information on the inverters.
@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING 🥴 I’m in a brand new truck and I tried doing just that and it wouldn’t Easily pull back I Didn’t want to break anything and figured there was a different way to do it after playing with it I got it to work thanks for your help
I must be the exception on manual transmission because I have drove 3 different automatic transmissions and still prefer a manual 13 preferred. I have always got better fuel mileage with a manual transmission
@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING the last one was a 2007 Volvo 10 speed with a Volvo D12 (predecessor to the D13) got about 6.1 avg. The 1st one was a 2005 clutchless (no clutch pedal) in a 2005 Columbia with a series 60 Detroit 10 speed. It only got 3.9 MPG. And Interstate Distribution Co. Said was the average for these trucks. The other was a 2003 Century class with Cummins ISX also a 10 speed but with a clutch got 6 MPG with it. *don't remember the gear ratio in these trucks. I now own a 2000 Freightliner Classic with a Series 60 Detroit with a 10 speed manual Eaton Fuller with I think 3.75 rears (not 100% positive) and get AVG. of 6.7 MPG over the last 6.5 years. I have saw 7.7 out of this brick. (Yes I would live to see this engine and drive train in an aerodynamic truck) My last truck before this was a 2012 Prostar with a 13 L Max Force with 10 speed manual Eation Fuller 3.35 rear super singles and a tag axle. I saw 11.6 one time pulling empty trailer from Ontareo Canada to Learedo, TX (trailer was the load). And rarely dropped below 8 with it. But what I saved in fuel I lost in tires. Best I got was 49,000 on drives. This truck I got now I put these drives on in May of 2014 (just over 435,000) and still have 8/32 tread left. (Checked Last Friday) For a reference on how easy I am on tires.
On my prime application I put the wrong last name. But on my driver license, bank account , and check stubs I have a different last name than the one on my certified birth certificate. I was due to start orientation Monday, is this a problem ? I didn’t know my last name was changed until today. I already paid my 100$ for my spot on Monday will I be delayed from orientation ? I have already been waiting for a month for this job hopefully you have time to answer me fast please , and yes I have told my recruiter.
Success Leasing offers a standard lease and a lease purchase program. You can learn more about the leasing options here: www.primeinc.com/success-leasing/lease-lease-purchase/
Not into Paccars or Automatics, also the truck is waaaaay to new for me. I wouldn't work at Prime. Oh, here is a question. Why does Peterbilt call that the Ultra Loft? All they did was raise the roof. Dosn't look as If they lengthened the sleeper to Volvo 780 status or w900 studio sleeper status. So the name comes off as misleading to me. Anyways it just looks like a slightly different version of a 387 is all.

Joseph Lockhart thanks for watching! The Peterbilt is a slick model.
@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING do we have any in stock for leasing as of yet?
Oooooh Yeah
What a Beauty
Nice looking truck
I'm from Australia, my profession is not truck driving but man seeing that truck definitely is making me consider my career choices haha
Thanks for watching and for the support all the way over in Australia!
CD player for audio books. Is this a 579? Ultraloft? SXM is mandatory IMO.
So does the base model ultra loft come with the touch screen(premium audio)
Hello dear friend. I watched your beautiful video from Iran. Peterbilt is my favorite tractor trailer. I have a question about dimension. How long is the length of this tractor?
Whats up with the new Volvos at Prime?
Yes I did that was in March then I had an family emergency but that is all taking care of I want to start in May I think I have to redo my application again
kc1ikv our applications are only good for 30 days. Give Recruiting a call today to discuss your class options! 888-664-9121
what colors can i get the truck in? im hoping to get a call/email tomorrow that ill be coming to prime next week.
Your camera's backwards filming. Notice the primes badging on the pick up in the first part of the video.
What is the service interval on PACCAR engines? I would imagine it’s hard to beat the 75000 mile service interval on the Detroit DD15.
Your looking at 35k if you use biodiesel
Nothing beats dd15 my friend
Truck needs USB ports and plug-in Outlets
how many more are coming in
For not being a driver I like this truck better than the International I saw in another video. Lol I've heard this joke when I drove a school bus about the turn signal fluid.
Question how can you get a peterbilt. 2020. Do you got be a lease driver to get that. Or company drive. Thank.
Is the truck moving as they film
What are the numbers on your lease program
What do think about the new westerstar 570 xe
Can a company driver get a factory refrigerator and inverter installed? How much extra is that? I’d rather have factory equipment.
Is there an option to replace the bottom bunk with a table like the Volvos?
Or couches like the Kenworth W900L studio sleepers.
Keep up the great videos I'm not knocking peterbilt it's a great truck but I like kenworth
62mph????? Ain't no way I'd drive something that slow, there is zero benefit to fuel mileage going that slow.
The King's Servant TMC did a study. Dropping top speed to 62 not only improved mpg but reduced overall maintenance costs by 30%, because of the reduced stress on the truck. May not work for your business model but probably does for others. Cheers

Hello! If you're a current Prime driver, you'll need to discuss this with Success Leasing to determine what options are available.
Can one be ordered with an 18 speed and dinette table with fold down bunk ? Thank you!
Hi Michael! You are not able to get an 18 speed and this table with this truck. Thanks for watching.

Can i get the rims and the outline of the grill painted black?
Are these types of Trucks for lease ops? They look so good 👍
Thanks for watching! The Peterbilts are available to both company drivers and independent contractors. Only the best for our drivers.
Nice truck but I like the w900 longhood with a 18 speed manual transmission
Can u get an rv refrigerator instead of factory
Are these available for team company drivers that are eligible for upgrade, or are these for lease only?

I only watched because of the beautiful lady, I'll keep my 2019 KW w900L. Good video though
Mpg is horrid on that model.
Not a Prime driver, ( retired ) but a great tour TKX
Thanks for watching, Don!
What type of transmission is standard spec on the company trucks?
All of our new trucks are automatic transmissions.
Auto's are the new company drivers, saves money on training. High turn over on new drivers.
In a good truck, the only thing that matters is reliabillity, and the Paccar sux.
Yeah i agree but at least they option for cummins
Over the last 16.5 years of driving full time. I've driven everything except westernstar. Which I don't care for the looks of.

That's great to hear! Thanks for watching and sharing your experience.
I miss working there
why did you leave?
No fridge for an owner operator tractor ?
Gotta pay 700 bucks to get one
When are they adding an in cab video system so the company can watch you drive in real time????
I bet soon
99j100cruiser we currently have 200 forward facing cameras in our trucks. We do not have any rear facing cameras at this time.
It's all for insurance cost.. and Bart Durham lawsuits, to cover company's butt, from rookie accidents..

Not into Paccars or Automatics, also the truck is waaaaay to new for me. I wouldn't work at Prime. Oh, here is a question. Why does Peterbilt call that the Ultra Loft? All they did was raise the roof. Dosn't look as If they lengthened the sleeper to Volvo 780 status or w900 studio sleeper status. So the name comes off as misleading to me. Anyways it just looks like a slightly different version of a 387 is all.
It's an 86" bunk.. it looks bigger in person.. than on camera..
Those super singles tho
Nice looking truck but I still love my FREIGHTLINERS
Thanks for watching, Greg!

@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING whats your average length of haul
@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING do you have OUTWARD pointing cameras only???
For solo, would be AWESOME to have a table with the two seats (seating booth) on each side instead of a lower bunk.
That would be a cool idea! Thanks for watching.
