    If you are going out with a trainer then only clothes and bed covers. No room for extras and you can pick anything up on the road.

    While in training your trainer will explain and recommend what to carry on the truck. Once you go solo there's some specific things too have. Right now just bring a willingness to learn and a desire to succeed.

    You mean we shouldn't drive in flip flops? Darn. And here I thought that was ok because I sure see a lot of drivers doing that. LOL

    And for Gods sake, take notes, not pictures, believe me when I tell you, those sights I see every day have been there as long as I've been driving, I'm pretty sure they will be there when you go solo.
