    It took me over an hour to back up to this michaels dock. They put a dumpster right in front of the dock so I had to do a 45* then a 90* then pull up 10 times I feel like a fool

    Don't sweat it, you'll get better. You'll also have bad days even after you've been doing it for years. Some days I'm so tired after a long day of driving, I can't back straight into a wide open space with nothing on either side of it.

    I was at one last week where the dockwell lined up perfectly with a telephone pole in the street, 50 feet away.

    Does anyone know any true long haul companies? CFI only gives me one every so often. I’m always early when I get them. I LOVE THE 1200+ mile trips. They give me Maryland to WA and I love stuff like that or PA to Texas.
