    How is everyone doing? Are we racking up those miles? I'm doing good at this posing when we deliver this load will be sitting at 14560 miles. Still a way to go but definitely getting it done.

    Just passed the 18k mark on the miles, and I am ready to be done. got some some much needed home time right now, hoping to be back at it in a day or two and finish it up in a couple weeks. Got my first taste of bad directions, ended up in downtown pittsburg on some narrow ### roads. that was fun. all I can say is don't trust the macro 19's to be correct lol. cant wait to get my own truck and start making some real money.

    So... being a "professional driver," you did match those mac19 instructions to an online map app that includes satellite pics before you drove the route, yes? Or being a rookie, did you just get a little lost?

    You can use mac28 to provide the correct or improved directions for mac19...

    I checked aginst the rand atlas and used Google's maps and streetview like ive done for ever but being a rookie i didn't catch that the exit was only on the westbound side of 376 lol, bet I wont miss that again.

    And good to know on the 28

    i am a psd student myself and i am thoroughly pleased with how they handled my situation. doctors called my family in sunday, fortunately i was close enough to get home in a timely manner, my father passed tuesday evening. everyone has worked with me and i will be getting back in the truck with the same trainer i had. oh and by the way, i couldnt ask for a better trainer, the only complaint i have is he doesnt do the tnt portion of training.

    Right around 5500, and then had a short 2 day 1300 mile run to end up my first half. We were turning alot of fla to the northwest runs, good times.
