"Do not plow with an ox and a donkey yoked together."
Apparently, the ancients had laws against animal cruelty. One of the big problems in teams is that usually, one member is much more capable, much stronger than the other. How can you be even if one of you is much stronger?
Have you noticed all the whimpering and crying that goes on in this forum? Odds are pretty good you would be stuck in a truck with someone who needs your shoulder to cry on.
Now, I did run some hot loads with obscene money into Canada one winter with a friend that could truck. He ran his 11, I ran mine. He was a solar powered machine and I am old school vampire. It worked well, but the guy could actually truck.Ruthless, KillingTime, Texas_hwy_287 and 3 others Thank this. -
10 years. Hubby and I, so I hardly think we count.
I remember years ago I heard on the news about a truck that was found in a ditch. One team mate stabbed the other while he was driving. Mr.E and I just blinked at each other in disbelief.KillingTime, Dominick253 and 201 Thank this. -

The OP should 'remember' that when in training it will be running as a team operation.
Experience will be gained at that time. -
Teaming Sucks in my opinion. 6 weeks with a trainer years ago proved that to me. Taking a family member along for a few weeks is good enough for me.

One of my daughters comes along with me during the summer months. That is enough for me.
I love having them on the truck with me because it gives us some very good time together. But the thought of another person 24/7/365 is simply too much stress.
Especially with them driving while I am trying to sleep.
