No problem. Freightshakers are easy to install and remove stereos. I'd just rip theirs out, plug mine in. When going to a yard, just rip mine out, put theirs back in. Nobody has to know.

You must already have the correct wiring harness on your radio to do that (Plug 'n' Play). Double check (when the time comes) because I know that Columbias and Centurys use different ones even for the Factory radios.

The only time you would have to swap radios is when the Truck goes in the shop and 100% of the time you will know that ahead of time. So if it doesn't have to go on the Shop, you wouldn't have to do the "switch a roo".

Side question. Do you have a source for conversion wiring harnesses so other stereos will just plug into Freightshaker harness? Have been looking for this.

I got mine from a stereo/window tint/wheel shop in Hemet, CA. The guy said that the Freightshaker connection looked exactly like that of a VW, then went and got a VW connector for my POS Insignia CD/RW/MP3 player and plugged it right in. So, I'd say look for a VW connector. Course, my truck (before it was stolen last week) was a 2002 Century. Not sure what the Columbia connection looks like.

I see that most you guys are from texas or further west--does most of KLLM run like this? I like the idea of you being able to run all over. I am on the east coast and just wondering if they run the same on the east. Most places will keep us "east coasters" in the north east and I was just wondering if they did the same. Your posts have been a great wonder though!

did you go with KLLM after getting out of school. If so:
are you getting miles
did the recruiters lie to you
do you have an assigned truck
would you recommend them for another student driver.

I would sure appreciate your input,
Steve

My ex with them right after school in May. He is getting miles, although the first few months were low. Now they vary from 2000-3000 per week. The recruiter didn't lie, but the trainer did. He has an assigned truck. They seem to be a pretty good company for a student.

I've enjoyed reading this thread, KLLM seems like a good choice for a student driver if you don't mind being out 3 weeks or so at a time. Keep the updates coming!
