    Training has officially come to an end and I'm proud to say I passed. During my 13 days behind the wheel I drove between 6700-6800 miles. Go in on Monday for final orientation which includes another backing and road test in my new truck. Then get to meet everyone in the office. The wait is finally over, I'm officially a professional driver. Thanks to everyone here for all the help these last 8 months.

    Thanks G13. I'll post pics of my rig when I get it. We use multiple trailers so who knows what I'll be pulling. And for future reference I'm a Vol not a Buckeye. Lol

    Here's my truck. Ain't she a beaut? Delivers my first load this morning with no issues. The follow up load was a different story. Got off on the wrong exit and #### near put myself in a non truck route. Luckily my trainer is fruition the area so I called him and he got me back on track. Longs line tomorrow will be my first run through the mountains with a 10 speed. Should be exciting. Lol

    Should be interesting since the ok my thing I've driven through the mountains is an automatic. The first few grades up will probably make me sweat as I try and figure it out
