    I haven't had time to get on as I have been pretty busy.

    A few items that people getting a truck should buy as soon as they can:

    Dry erase markers
    Umbrella folder
    Good pens
    Good gloves
    Paper towels
    Paper plates (I got bowls too)
    Plastic silverware
    Babywipes (serves other purposes in emergency)
    Simplegreen cleaner
    Small handheld broom
    5 gallon bucket (serves other purposes in emergency)
    4 gallon trash bags
    Lighter leash (if you are a smoker to hang above you to light with. It won't get lost and you can pay attention to the road.)
    2 cases of water for back up
    Bread
    Peanut butter and jelly swirl
    Twin xl sheet
    King size pillow
    King size pillow case
    Dryer sheets
    Duffle or laundry bag
    Dry food
    Rags and towels
    Oil rags

    Now the rest is not essential, but will save headaches and money:

    12v cooler (I bought the Coleman from Walmart)
    Headset (I bought the Roadking RK400 and have no issues, and it is cheaper than blueparrot)
    12v lunch box oven (I still need to get this but it is not an essential. Just makes things a little more comfortable.)

    With this stuff life on the road will be a lot easier. I make sandwiches, cereal, milk, pretty much anything I want, and my truck is clean and organized. -TenGears

    Question for you TEN, from the time you stepped foot into classroom until you got your own truck, how much time we talking. I have some driving experience so hope I can breeze through it faster then normal. Thanks bro Congrats on the Solo...Not a big Fan of Freightshakers is that all they run?
     
    TenGears Thanks this.

    4 weeks phase 1, 15 days phase 2, and phase 3 is you in your own truck. There is no shortcut unless you already hold a legal/valid CDL-A.
     
    jzw, TenGears and DieselPunk Thank this.

    I'm in marshfield Wisconsin in training right now and it's not too bad. 4 weeks in class and in the yard, 10 to 16 days with a driver trainer, then you get your truck. They have freightliner and international but it looks like they're switching over to ask freightliner with all the 2017 stuff I see rolling through the gates
