    Got the brakes lines fixed around 4am, went to sleep, started our day around 7am, drove about 50 miles, and now the truck is broke down. We are going to get towed to Shippensburg in about an hour.

    Our plan is to keep moving. I just do not want to get stuck sitting in a truck stop on the 4th waiting to deliver on the 5th.

    That is a beautiful picture!!!

    We made it to Shippensburg about 4:30 and put the truck on the shop list.....No domelights, No odometer light, Starter problems, a "Ding Ding" that comes and goes, the OnGuard comes and goes, and no power going up an 8% grade making Sean drop to 1st gear and climb the hill at 5mph and unable to shift up.

    Day 3 is in the books every one made it out of a class of 6
    waited all day before they even let us know that we were hired
    we all got assigned trainers even though we all were non smokers
    since we all were non smokers we had to make a sacrifice "GET Trained BY The Smoker" Lol:biggrin_25523: or wait at home for a trainer
    we all have to get on the bus and go meet the trainer
    One had to go to Michigan
    One had to go to California
    One had to go to Colorado
    One had to go to Tennessee
    One had to go to Oklahoma
    One got his own truck because he was a rehire
    This is a great company to be apart of
    I look forward to seeing some of you some day:biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525::biggrin_25525:

    The odometer light will come back on if you flip the headlights off and on. Like that in both of our trucks and the "ding-ding" is the drivers door not being slammed hard enough.
