I have a couple for ya!

I had two trainers back in 1999 for Swift. The bad tale first - trainer was driving, we pulled into a truck stop at Big Cabin, OK. He parks, we get out of the truck. Truck starts rolling because he forgot to set the brakes. I had the doors unlocked and the knobs pulled before he could even decide what to do. There are other horror tales about this guy, as he was a bit sexist, and didn't seem to think women should be driving rig.

My second trainer - I had to get a new one before I threw the first one mentioned out of the rig and ran him over with it - was a stitch. We had a blast doing Jeff Foxworthy stuff and blasting the air horn going past golf courses and driving ranges for golfers. Learned a lot more from the second guy than I did from the first one, and had a great time in the process!

My trainer with Swift was top notch, never raised voice, helped out with things like food shower, when I didn't have the money, cause it was going to support the wife and kids.. He even gave me a Sattelite radio when it was all over, plus a big cooler...
