    i WILL BE as defensive as i CAN BE when someone starts some crap with me......

    i am so happy for YOU (sarcasm) that YOU got to TRAIN on 48 and 53 footers....... you must feel "special" about YOUR training over all the others here that could not have such an advantage as you did...

    and YES, YES I DO teach my students "name calling" (sarcasm)....as well......now YOU SHOW ME, WHERE I DID NAME CALLING TOWARDS YOU.......and if you cannot back that up, you MUST apologize......otherwise, be prepared for a barrage of come backs from the others......

    this FROM YOU in posting number 35..

    SO IF ANYTHING AT ALL, YOU INSULTED ME AND MY SCHOOL, AND MY JOB..........

    YOU DO NOT KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT TEACHING, YET YOU ARE HERE BASHING ME....?????

    SO WHY SHOULD I NOT BE DEFENSIVE, WHEN YOU CLEARLY ATTACKED ME....????

    Ok you all are forgetting one major fact. CFS only hauls 53' trailers. Even the few dry vans and flatbeds the have at 53' It is their right to insist a CDL holder who has never driven a tractor pulling a 53' trailer to attend a school to ensure they can pull one.

    Arguing otherwise is a waste of bandwidth.

    I hear its easier to back with a 53' trailer, it doesn't whip around as quick, so its more forgiving. I hit my first dock with a 20' can......and let me tell you, I think that rumor is right, that thing spun so fast I was over correcting all over. Only 2 pull ups though, so I felt pretty good about it.
