    I dont understand why all these people come on here yet always fail to tell us where they live. How does anyone offer sound advice if we can't point him in the right direction?

    Heck, there might be another member here that's his neighbor.
     
    JReding, Western flyer and Dan.S Thank this.

    Someone made a good suggestion about posting a ad on craigslist. There might be someone out there hurtin for cash that would train for a day. But I myself or anyone I know sure as #### would not let someoneone f there truck up for any amount of money for a day trying to learn

    We all know it's not a rocket science but like most things it takes some practice to become decent at it.

    Really? You fail to see why? Then you’ve just forgotten what it was like the 1st time you tried to do it. Sure, it’s possible. But it’s possible to hang by your thumbs for 24 hours. That don’t mean it’s a good idea!!!

    Lying to your company and putting their equipment, the public, AND yourself, at risk isn’t a good idea.
