    thats awesome man, when you go out to test out, same rules apply. Your drive test isnt as formal as the one you took for your CDL. You should do good. If you have Mike Z for your release class, ask everything you can.
     
    Scottyp68 Thanks this.

    Do you normally clear a grand take home? I thought a few weeks ago you were bringing $700-$800/wk?

    Still in Hagerstown md, seems road repair drags their feet when it comes to authorizing repairs that are not done in house. They finally authorized the shop to purchase a new charge air cooler for my truck, one that was originally recommended to buy due to speed of shipping. Seems I'm going to be hanging out for at a minimum one more day at the hotel, worst case scenario, 2 more days... other than being a huge annoyance, I have a severely pissed off wife at home. They repowered my load today as well, so I'm out over 300 from that load, sitting with an empty trailer, collecting 50 a day in breakdown pay that didn't start till today because it only counts on days you actually miss a load. Really not happy right now.
