[QUOTE="Odin's Rabid Dog, post: 7339052, member: 216291"]^ That aligns with my experiences and observations of the last 2 days. I'll be pulling 53' possum bottoms at first, 3 axles plus tags. I did some driving today, finally. I was straight with them about my limited experience with non-synchro manuals, and they're ok with that. I really only missed one shift, but that's one too many, as far as I'm concerned. The driver training me was really good about it and gave me some really good tips on how to avoid that mistake in the future. Apparently they have a hard time finding drivers that can go into Canada and back without issue. That really surprised me, but, ok. I had no problems at the border either way, and to be totally honest, there's is one little thing way back in my past that I was nervous about, but no problem. Yeehaw.
