    You are all missing the roads in Michigan
    Definitely the worst for the Upper Great lakes

    Not even close to Indiana's. If the interstates in Michigan were all strafed by A10's, then they'd only be half as bad as Indiana's.

    Now I feel like a dummy. Here I thought @MACK E-6 @Allow Me. were treating us all to hotdogs.

    Well I read your post. I see the picture you made for us to see. My advice, listen to the 2nd trainers advise. Your probably on your own now, and when you back up from now on, turn off radio, lower phone volume, and concentrate on backing the best way you feel works. Remember the old saying, GOAL, Get out and look, I still do it to this day, but takes me a while to climb up and down in the truck, sometimes multiple times and im angry, but is still do it after 43 years. Good Luck young man, and do your best to not hit anything. Try real hard, and you`ll make it in trucking

    well the good thing about starting at the bottom is you can only move one way and that is up.

    Lol. Come on, bud!
    It's 3 lanes South of Portland into New Hampshire.

    I get it tho. First time I ever took 101 across NH, where it merges with 393 & 93 for a bit in Manchester, I was like 'WTF? 5 lanes!?!? Where do I need to be?!' (I'm a rural VT'er by birth. Been in Maine for almost a dozen years now tho. Cut my milk teeth at Werner too.)

    Yes I am Sick of the barrels with no people working.

    The Federal government needs to step in and have the roads get repaired the same way they built them back during FDR.

    Do a 40 mile stretch but have 10 thousand men working on that one stretch

    Get Er Done and move into the next problematic states roads.

    I already have a pretty thick skin, I dealt with individuals even worse than my 1st trainer at my last job. But since I’m on my own he can go to hell.
