    My wife and I are thinking about trucking as an option right now but we want to be able to stay together through out the training process. Anyone know any companies that do couples training ?

    I went to school with a couple and decided to work for Reohl as a team. But they have to do the training seperatly on two different trucks. I'm not sure if that is a standard throughout but you should call around and check.

    2 trainees with 1 trainer in 1 truck would probably not be very efficient, or at least double the training time since each person has to cut their time in half, assuming the trainer is in the passenger seat the whole time.

    Yes - CRS (Central Ref) does train couples together - there was a couple that went through the same time my husband did. Now my husband and I did ours separetly - but he was unemployed and I was still employed - so he went first and I stayed to tie up loose ends... either way works, but the time separated SUCKED!!
