    Not exactly sure where the drivers home term was, I think SLC, SFS DENVER PHX, OR maybe Helena, it is red and from my understanding well taken care of maintenance wise.:biggrin_25526:

    Well there you go, I see now that the driver has made his departure known to all, it was HIGHWAY PREACHERS OLD TRUCK I THINK IT IS IN SLC. I didn't want to let the cat out of the bag till he announced it.

    Just gotta secure a seat at my local trucking school and I'm good to go! If I head to Conover though, I doubt I'd get that truck!

    I'm hoping (key word) that I'll start my classes Monday then try to be in Conover for orientation around... the first week of April maybe? So mid April probably.

    If all goes well for me I should be in orientation April 18 in Conover. My question is do you get any say in what truck you will be driving? How do they do that when you have four or five people going through orientation at the same time? Do you draw straws or what? Also, are all the company trucks red? I've seen a brown one, and a white one, are these O.O. or something?
