    baggage. I had my laptop, but did not use it while with trainer. The laptop came in handy when I got my own truck. I had copilot gps and it was extremely helpful in trip planning. My backup was the dry erase directions I put on the upper windsheild.
     
    Baack and THD Thank this.

    I have a copilot gps as well. I also have my tom tom which was before I got into trucking. It will usually have the destination if for some reason the copilot does not.
    I love the dry erase directions on the windshield. It has saved my but many a time.
    I use the Gps, the routing, and especially the directions from the company.
    I then verify the destination as much as possible on the atlas.
    Even with that, sometimes it is hard to find the destination...but I just keep at it until I get it.
     
    THD Thanks this.

    I had a laptop stand mounted between the seats. It was worth every penny. I purchased it through dieselboss.com

    Well, I got my Confermation & I will see you folks in Little Rock on Sunday for a week. After that, according to the recruiter, they will then be sending us (Aparently a HUGE CLASS) to Laurinburg for 2 weeks. After that I'll be assigned to a trainer for 21 days.

    With the way this hot weather has been here in the carolinas, I can only imagine as to just how much hotter it's going be out there. I just hope there is a place close buy to buy a couple of cases of bottled water while in yard training. (Of course, I prefer Ice Tea, LOL)

    Anyone else going on Sunday? I'll be flying in as it was not only faster, got a good deal on a flight & Mav said that they would be reimbursing my anyway. Which is coll with me.
