Is the 2017 road atlas good enough to buy because the latest one 2018 is $60. I can get the 2017 on eBay for $28.
Also is this too much to bring to CDL school and on the trainers truck? This blue bag, my backpack and sleeping bag and pillow?
Thanks![]()

That’s too much to spend on an Atlas. For example my company has them for $10 in their store and at orientation.
In my opinion that’s fine for a trainer truck. I brought a giant duffel bag. It had sleeping bag and pillow too. At first they look at you like you’ve got too much. But let’s see a trainer put his crap in a duffel bag. It’s hard to be a minimalist when u don’t know what gear u will need. So bring all u want! Screw them.Need4Speed Thanks this. -
There's some good threads on here on what to bring to training - remember the season we're approaching.
Looks good to me. -
get the 2017 atlas like they said earlier not much difference year to year. Im still working with a 2011 atlas. Youre not bringing too kuch stuff. just remember to bring a small tablet or something like that with the chargers as you will have a lot of down time waiting on shippers receivers.

People can hate me for saying this. But... I never used my Atlas again after CDL school and company training. I threw mine away.
