    Don't worry... anytime your TNT trainer feels your going to be in an area that is near the limits of your abilities he'll be in that seat. Just wait until you get your first taste of delivering in say New Jersey.

    Haven't been on here in a while. Lots of hv loads. I have been in all 48 states now. I went home for a week because I had to have a wisdom tooth pulled. So I got a new trainer who is very sharp. I have decided to go lease. I know this is no easy task but feel it is best. I have weighed all the ups and downs and made my choice. Heading in on April 5th to upgrade

    Read the lease thread before you jump. New drivers have a pretty steep hill to climb... the success rate for lease operators is around 2.5 in 10 at Prime. http://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/prime/182163-leasing-at-prime.html
