    It has been a HOT past three days! We have all been out on the range this week. Two of the guys went up to BRF yesterday to get the new training truck. The rest of us tested on our range maneuvers. We all did pretty good. One guy has been havin trouble grasping the concept of backing but he has a couple more days to practice so he should be ok til then. We are going out on the road tomorrow, can't wait!

    I am serious man,
    1) First time driving on the road
    2) First time on a 10 speed
    3) Truck broke down while I was driving in a construction zone with NO shoulder and going uphill
    4) Took us 4 hours to get someone to come fix the truck
    5) Once they got there they didn't have the parts add another hour.
    6) Did I mention it was 95 degrees most of the way there with NO A/C
    7) Or the fact that we were driving a damaged truck AND trailer that whistled VERY loudly for the whole trip

    So you got a good lesson in trucking. The whistling get used to the T2000 and T700 are loud when going down the road. The no ac is rough no doubt. Sadly waiting on road side is a crap shoot on how long they take, and how much they can actually fix.
