Come and Join the Con-way Truckload VTC, the most successful "Real Life" based VTC in the community!
Here is some general information, more details can be found on the site, please click the photo. Guests are not required to register in order to read the company information, one of the like features of the VTC.
Equipment
Trucks
We run a fleet that consists of 2008 and up Freightliner Cascadia's with condo sleepers, 2008 and up Kenworth T660's with 72 or 86 inch studio sleepers, and 2005-2007 Kenworth T600's. All company owned trucks are well maintained, and kept clean.
All trucks are equipped with Michelin X-One wide base tires, and Alcoa aluminum front and rear wheels to save on weight, and fuel mileage. You are required to run these on your company truck.
Freightliner Cascadia: The paint on this truck is my personal paint, the one available for download will look similar, but without the name on the door, the clean idle and IFTA stickers. You will be responsible for adding anything you want.
Kenworth T660: This truck was very hard to skin, but came out looking alright. You can make a little adjustments if you want to to make it look better, but this is how it is up for download.
Kenworth T600: These trucks have been refurbished from their CFI days and made new again with T660 parts. The interiors have been redone as well as the paint to be updated to the current livery. More of these are added to the fleet once they are refurbished. The years range from 2005 to 2007. These will be used as top driver awards trucks. It is password protected.
We also run a Reefer Division which use new Freightliner Columbia specialized tractors.
Trailers
We run new Wabash Duraplate HD trailers and Strick dry van trailers. The aluminum plating on the Wabash trailers helps to protect the trailers from the exterior, and to prevent rotting wood side paneling on the inside.
All trailers are equipped with Michelin X-One wide base tires to save on weight and to help the fuel economy, Alcoa aluminum wheels are also run with the tires. You are required to run these on a company trailer.
Trailers also use a "doublestack" system to ensure that we deliver the most freight of the competition.
Owner operators are not allowed to run their own trailers, they must run company owned trailers.
Strick Dryvan: These are older CWTL trailers, they still run the previous livery on them. The paint available for download will look just like this, minus trailer numbers. There are 2 versions available, Con-way Truckload, and CFI.
Wabash Duraplate HD: The Wabash's are new to Con-way, and they wear the new livery. The new livery will be up for download just like this, again, minus trailer numbers. There may be a change in the looks of this paint.
Road Systems Inc. Wabash Duraplate HD: This trailer is a private mod for this VTC only. You have to earn this one by staying loyal to the company, doing loads, and getting out of the "rookie" position. Mavis modified this one for me to look exactly like the ones Con-way Truckload really uses. RSI is Con-way owned, and they refurbish trailers for Con-way.

It is password protected so it doesn't get out to non employees.
Utility 3000R Reefer Trailer
*Some of these mods are protected by a password that you have to get from me in order to try and prevent people from downloading when they aren't supposed to. Some mods need to be earned within the company to reward you for staying with the VTC and driving for them.
Pay and Hometime
Drivers get paid .36 cents per mile, and get paid ever week on Thursday. The more you drive, the more you get paid, its that simple.
Hometime is great, evey 7 days you get 2 days at home, or you may request time off in the Boss's office. More information available on the website.
Take a look at the information available on the website before signing up. We hope to see you there!
Maps and Supported Games
At the CWTL VTC we support only 18 Wheels of Steel Haulin right now. We can adjust to fit any map, but the recommended maps are Ivan's RnR V5, V7. Cali Edition, and Phantom's SE map. You get a choice between regional and cross country hauls. We also run in Mexico and Canada.
Loads
Most of our loads are drop-n-hook, meaning that you take a trailer from one place, drop it at your destination, take one from there and go. Also, at Con-way you will get consistent loads, waiting time is very slim when you want to be out making money.
