Congrats led! I'm going home and due for my upgrade to A seat when I come back. The miles are easily done in no time. And you will learn a lot in the process!

I'm honestly concerned about the 60k miles being cut in half tho. Read alot of people saying that after 60k they were not ready for solo

You stay in the truck until your comfortable. 30k, 60k are just minimums.

What steps have you already taken? JCW had his date before he graduated from CDL School.
