I just want to say, thanks for all of the great post from everyone and I should be going to school late July... hopefully. I have done my physical today, and hopefully will get to set a date soon for the RDTC.
One question I do have some of yall that has attended the RDTC. I am financed for the school, but what other expences will I have other than the $400 hotel, and travel? I want a good estimate so I know what to save up for.
Ill be going to Roehl soon...

Laner99 Thanks this. -
thanks, The drivers I talked to says they are a good company to work for and alot of my friends that drive told me to start out with them, so I hope I made the right choice.

you have the potential to learn a lot. You may not appreciate it until you are gone, but if you go in with an open mind you'll take a lot away from Roehl.

meals... I took an elec fry pan with me and hit up grocery store (same parking lot as Woodfield Inn)... rooms have a frig and microwave
cheaper to eat that way then eating out ... it will get you used to eating badly...preparing you for the life of a truck driver -
I can always whip out the ol george forman grill...

I too am heading to Roehl. I just got off the phone with my recruiter Kim. July 18th is the day I start in Marshfield. I am driving out from Albany, N.Y. so if anyone is going out and needs a ride let me know. I am super excited to finally do this. It has been a long time coming!

I plan on going either the 18th or the 25th. I need to save cash before I go. I would drive, but when you live 1300 miles a way and drive a Jeep TJ, gas does get kind of expensive.

You don't need much money really. I packed groceries and brought my toaster. So managed to make three weeks on about 150. did eat out a couple days. Cooked out on both Sundays w a couple cold ones. That was last year this time and at the hotel at the end of 29th. I know people can comment on the cold beers all they want. Not like I drank every night and I think I deserved em! You'll get some cash for driving. Can't remember how much, but it was a nice surprise.
what kind of jeep is a tj? You mean a cj? What motor is in that?
Good luck to both of yous!Shotsjc Thanks this.
