    I just got done with SNI orientation and I was astounded by the variance between how many miles people got with the cdl schools. One guy said he probably got 150 miles over an 160 hour class. I was on the high end of the scale and probably put in 2000 miles or so. Which compared to working ain't much,but compared to what other people got in their cdl school seems like a ton. Anyhow reply with how many miles, how much coupling, backing, what type of driving etc...

    My 6 wk course was not affiliated with a company in any way, we only logged about 150 miles but there were days that I spent more time in reverse than forward and we also did allot of in town driving. 2000 is for sure allot of miles!
