    I just finished my Refresher course & Wife just finished Driving School. Wife is looking into some place to finish her training. I'm game, this is my second time around doing :biggrin_2556:TR. Wife is worried, and I have a few questions.

    Whats the average wait time for a female mentor?

    When will you know if you must wait for :biggrin_25515:ne?

    Can you meet up with your mentor anywhere, (near-by tuck stop) or must it be out of the terminal?

    Are Inverters allowed, plug-in only? will shop install one I buy if I pay for wiring?

    When we get team driving down to a art form :)biggrin_25524:r At Least Fake It) what is the average (ball-park) weekly mileage for a Team?

    We asked our recruiter the same questions and received no answers. Thank You For Any Help You Can Give:biggrin_25514:

    Hey Bluescreen, I just thought of something, not sure if it will work but maybe worth a shot. Whatever company you decide to drive for let's just say Kennesaw. After orientation at Kennesaw or during orientation actually find another husband/wife team and see if they would be willing to split up and train you guys. Maybe offer them some kind of monetary incentive. There is probably a married driving couple out there that would love a break from each other for a little while but still get paid as a team. The other option would be like I said before to find a owner operator willing to train you guys at the same time. It is possible so don't give up. Good luck guys!

Sorry i can not help on training questions. But they will let you train her yourself
