Going to MTI April 13TH Richfield WI.

this was part of your training ??? how many students in thr truck were with you and the trainer ??

 

they have trucks for training where they took everything out of the sleepers and put seats back there. if i remember correctly they hold six students and one instructor.

 

gotcha, they must be sleeping in hotels then

 

6 it is
one student drives
instructor sits in passenger seat
there are 3 seats across the back where the bed would be and a seat behind each front seat
all but the middle seat in back are air seats
as crowded as it may seem its really not that bad
there is also a a second door installed behind the drivers door for easy in and out

 

That sounds cool and cozy. LOL. I already have my CDL but I have no experience. I was with an OTR company in Jan. of 2000 and my son had a hair loss disorder. So, I came off the road to be with him and my wife. I just never went back. I have been driving tractor trailers hauling truss' for the last 9 years. Since my job is now about gone because of the economy I have decided to go OTR. I sent in an application and DeeAnn from Millis contacted me by email Friday telling me I was accepted to MTI. I am really excited and I will call them early tommorrow and get everything setup. I have read all the posts that I could find and think I have made a good choice. Thanks to all for the information.

 

when you talk to Deeann find out what class you will be at i go june 1st to the ohio class..... housing sucks right now i here ya.... i got laidoff from andersen windows in january and just got called back last week... but it's time to move on... andersens where saying they probly would only keep us on till october or so and have to lay us off again... anyway good luck

 

I talked to DeeAnn and they are not filling classes till next week and it will be the July class. I have to call her back at the end of this week to find out what day next week they will be taking calls to fill their July class. She said even though I recieved an acceptance letter that I have to call and try to get a slot. SOOOOOO I will be really trying hard to get a slot. I sure hope I get one. Anyway I will keep everyone posted on the progress. JstNew when you get there let me know how things go for you.

God Bless
