    I'm well aware and I think my initial post was poorly articulated. I meant in reference to the training which my understating with Wilson Is BASED on Prime. I mentioned Prime because I thought more would be familiar with the training if both are the same.

    Thanks, good luck to you. It's beautiful up there. We were just in Northern Idaho on a fact finding mission and loved it. That sealed it!

    System transport is great place to start in flatbed . Plus they have a pnw region. Which is basically western 11 but without california or nevada. Way better than slamming doors

    I bet running western 11 you would hopefully train with someone running those lanes. Seems like they would let you take a bit of time between phases. Doesn’t hurt to ask them. Doesn’t mean they will be truthful but they seem to have a decent rep.

    You running it with Wilson? If so how often do you swing through the house? I'm out of Texas but been essentially western 11 with the Prime side and staying out 5 weeks at a go.
