Coastal doesn't seem to pay as much as the others, at least in CC. I have heard that the trucks are not well maintained, but don't know for sure. They sure do look nice. There's a purple and silver one in CC that I just love.
I would like to try one of those Volvo automatics. I gotta feeling that automatic transmissions were made for tank hauling. Every veteran tank driver I have talked to (3) that has switched to an auto loves them. Just fire her up, set the cruise control, and go!
Coastal buys from the same racks that I buy from, so I'll try and get some information from the drivers I see there.

I interviewed with them, said they pay .80 for loaded miles and hourly when not loaded. Said drivers make anywhere from 1800-2800 every two weeks. Sounds like a good company starting out. Hope this helps you out.
