    Hey bud. Good luck. You'll be fine. I went through Roehls driver program in April 2008. It wasn't bad at all. If you get Jason Krenn (sp?) as your trainer, he's great. Don't know if he's still there or not. He's about 6'6" you can't miss him. You doing flatbed or van? I went into training for van then went out with my OTR trainer (who was flatbed) and decided to switch to the flatbed fleet. I ended up coming off the road about 8 months later to work local, but it was a decent experience. Miles had dropped off but that was when the recession was in full swing in '08 so it's expected. Good luck though, don't be nervous, you'll do fine.
