When considering a career with Puryear Tank Lines, understanding the composition of our fleet is essential, especially regarding transmission types. We know that drivers have preferences and varying levels of experience with manual and automatic transmissions. This article aims to provide clarity on what drivers can expect from our fleet.
Fleet Composition: Manual and Automatic Transmissions
At Puryear Tank Lines, our fleet primarily consists of manual transmission trucks, with a selection of automatic transmission vehicles available.
Opportunities for Drivers with Automatic-Only Experience
We understand that some drivers may have experience exclusively with automatic transmissions. For those holding an automatic-only CDL restriction, we offer ways to broaden your qualifications. Drivers interested in transitioning to manual transmissions are encouraged to have their restrictions lifted. Once this is achieved, we welcome you to contact us to process your application and explore opportunities within our fleet.
Commitment to Driver Comfort and Safety
Regardless of transmission type, all our trucks are late-model Peterbilts and Kenworths, meticulously inspected and approved. We prioritize driver comfort and safety, ensuring that each vehicle is equipped with modern amenities, including GPS and Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs). Additionally, our trucks feature Lytx event recording systems with both outward and driver-facing cameras, activated only during significant events to promote safety and accountability.
Conclusion
For some, drivers between manual and automatic transmissions is a significant choice. At Puryear Tank Lines, we strive to accommodate preferences while maintaining a fleet that upholds our standards of safety, efficiency, and driver satisfaction. We encourage drivers to discuss their transmission preferences and any licensing considerations with our recruiting specialists to find the best fit within our company.
