If you want to save your knee the pain use the kenworth when practicing. The clutch on it is much nicer than on the freightshakers.

I am jealous! I know you are having fun while learning. Can't beat that.

I ended up not have a sore leg, but there were some in my class that were sore. Had a lot of fun driving the trucks around the Millis 500.

Hey thanks FinallyTruckin. Glad to hear that you'll be here next month and that your getting all your stuff together. The final couple of days before you come to class will be crazy trying to make sure you have everything for class and taking care of last minute details. I worked at my previous job until the Friday before I started school. I haven't been disappointed with anything about Millis Transfer. If your coming to Trenton Bill Smith your instructor is great. He has lots of great stories and he is funny, so he keeps your interest all through class.

Some advice
Forget 1st gear unless dropping trailer or sliding tandems or tugging to ensure fifth wheel locked.
Be in Trenton groping a burgundy whale about 6:30. Say hi if u see me. -
I like the Kenworth except for the brake pedal.
-
Yeah we have been staying away from the granny gear. I guess we won't get to see you unless your still there @ 7:15 a.m. I'm going to post some pics of the newest truck to the fleet on Millis company ride. So check it out. It has side skirts over the fuel tanks. Pretty nice looking.
