Leaving for CR England in Richmond, IN. in 2 days....never driven a stick shift

Hi, my name's amber & me and my girlfriend are going to be going to CRE Richmond, IN location. Any good or bad things to say about them? Also, anyone who has any tips or pointers for me please feel free! We are nervous but very excited and keeping an open mind to all opinions! We will be driving as a team so one question I have is, Will we be doing OTR training with each other plus a trainer or will they seperate us?

 

They will have you guys train together. The main thing is that you both get your permits at the same time..Study hard before you go so that you can make that happen otherwise, you will be training at different times.

 

How is the instructors/trainers & equipment at the Richmond Indy terminal?

 

keep us updated. Im interested to see how your journey turns out.

 

They talk about a lease yet?

 

I'm kind of like you leannweaver32. I am trying to go into this CRE experience with an open mind. I know a lot of people have negative things to say, but then again I have also see a few (only a few) posts about good experiences with CRE. Basically, it is what you make it & i'm going to try and make it a positive experience for me and my girlfriend.

 

Im sure ppl from englad know of , or read this site so they might be adjusting their angle. But we'll see if when you hire on and they all of a sudden have no company trucks, if oull get desperate and lease.. I think this was what a cousin of mine did. Got a brand new shiny hood a few years back. Didnt turn out too well for him.

 

When I finished my phase 2 training, my tc asked if I planned to lease or go company so that he would know which route to go with me. If they don't have a company truck available (wasn't a problem for me) you can team drive and make money that way until you get a truck. They never pushed me to lease a truck..
