JW you going 4/15 to Trenton?

 

I will keep you posted for sure. I live in Williamsburg,ky. I get nervous about anything. I drove a kenworth rollback for a while and loved it., had no problem. I know it's not as long, but still done good. I hope I take to this pretty fast.

 

jmorgn, yes iam. cant wait!

 

usually the longer the better, my trouble trying to not get lost in the gears as far as downshifting.

 

jw, for the most part i stayed out the whole time with my trainer, it kind of worked out where i did my training during dec-jan so i was with an experienced driver to get the skinny on driving in bad weather and believe me i had a few white knuckle days, i try to stay out no more than three weeks i guess you could come home weekly, but to make $$$ you have to sacrifice a little just my opinion, as far as trucks i have a 2011 T700 it only had 114,000 miles on it so its fairly new, hope this answers some of your questions
