    Hello I am going to Prime the last week in Feb. for their training program. Is there anyone else that will be attending the same time? I am out of the Detroit area does Prime run up in Michigan at all? Can anyone give my some suggestions on what to take to training?

    We go up to Michigan all the time... Traverse City, Kalamazoo, Paw Paw are some of the shippers Ive gone to. Ive had deliveries in Lansing, 2 places around Detroit, Grand Rapids to name a few.

    Last time I was there in early Jan. I had a rough time getting a load out of MI... sat for 2 days.

    little over 10 months total... about 6 months since I got my own truck.

    Good luck to you.

    My advice: Dont be afraid to make friends and keep in touch with them during your training... it can go a long way on evaluating your overall experiance with your instructor and trainer. Whether you got it better or worse than the other guys.
